  Gotta lol at this a little...the effects of budget cutbacks

  

  If you’re a victim of a burglary, theft or car prowling in Spokane, don’t expect to get the crime solved.

  The Spokane Police Department announced Wednesday the official elimination of the property crimes unit and said citizens should expect only 5 percent of reported property crime to be investigated.

  “We don’t want people to have that false impression that just because you make a police report a detective is going to look at it,” said Officer Jennifer DeRuwe, department spokeswoman.

  Police continued working active cases and have been trying to start new investigations, but the resources to continue doing so just aren’t there, DeRuwe said.
