What is the name of your state? Florida
Not sure if this can be answered here or not but here goes anyway..Does a police officer have a duty to act? I was assualted, ran to a police officer and asked him for help. He refused to do anything, resulting in the suspect getting away. A complaint was filed with internal affairs but I have heard that officers are not required to provide assistance. Is this still true when the incident involves a felony, or if someone may need medical help? Also, can an officer refuse to write a police report?
Thanks
