Would defo portray the 'this is the details and whereabouts of the person/persons who physically attacked me' over 'help me get my bike back' when dealing with police. Which is shit, wouldn't make anything up or overamp anything as somehow you may end up with charges against you for wasting their time.
Twice in my life i've been 1st on scene with very bad RTC, and both times on calling emergency services they have NOT dispatched Ambo or Police based on my inbound call, one relied on another person also calling them while I was working until something was sent, and the other one I was still on my own unable to do anything more for the casualty and they had not dispatched an ambo until I called again some 15 minutes later to ask where it was, at that point one was sent and arrived and all was well. In the second case it was not far from being a happy ending, the casualty needed work in the ambo before they made it to A+E, if that had happened and I was on own, it wouldn't have ended well.
I think both times I was too calm and methodical for the call handler to grasp the seriousness of my call, in my mind someone giving as much coherent detail in a calm and understandable manor = will get results. But the call handlers seem to want to hear unhinged neuritic screaming and audible trauma until = we'll dispatch some help now.

I was waiting at home before the predetermined time that I’d arranged with the seller to buy, and separately with the coppers to accompany (after the last one where the police had nobody to attend and I had to cancel). And the coppers never called or arrived. So I never left for the meet.
