@colin_dunlap Don’t let facts get in the way of your fake outrage and willingness to mislead your audience, Collin! I could’ve taken the next five weeks off if I chose to - in our world it’s called contractual time off.

Great time watching March Madness @PPGPaintsArena with @GovernorShapiro.

[Larry Scirotto @ChiefScirotto]

@colin_dunlap It is important to explain what those numbers look like operationally. We had 181 officers working until 230-3a. From 3a-7a we had 32 officers working and 37 calls. So <2 calls for every officer in 4 hrs. Consistent with most overnights.

@VoteLaughlin Please do your homework before making irresponsible comments. Your statement is misleading and harmful to the people that rely on you for truthful information. Thank you.
