Hi, I wanted to ask about the police here. I tried to ask for help yesterday, when we wanted to report a thief. I had to call 114 multiple times, because they were busy and asked me to call back… the third time when they asked me to call back again, I told them I’ve been told the same twice before. So they finally talk with me, and tell me they can’t do anything, because we didn’t see the person actually stealing & I have to report it online. We had the thief nearby for the whole time I tried to get a hold of them, but nothing.

I am from Eastern-Europe, where police gets paid less and isn’t as praised as here, but when I want to report something, they immediately do the paperwork and try to help. Why is it so different here? Do I really pay this high amount of tax to be told to report stuff online? Which, by the time I get home and get to sit down in front of my computer to actually report it, is a lost cause.

I am really not sure and been wondering, because this was my first experience here with police, and it was a bit upsetting. Especially the part when they ask me to call back, not even once haha.

      Yeah robbery is a big no no and is handled very different than theft. Other cases like this leads to multiple years in jail for the offender, while simple theft is more a slap on the wrist.

      If you want to be a criminal in Denmark dont do robberies.

      It’s hard to admit that something doesn’t work right in Denmark, isn’t it? Police is pretty much useless in here

        There is enough wrong with how the police works in Denmark, that we don’t need blatant lies.

        No way in hell did someone call in a robbery by gunpoint, just to have the cops shrug them off.

        Dude lied, get over it.
