(This was 11 years ago) We called 911, and they sent out the calvary. PD was the first to arrive, followed by an a fire truck, an ambulance and at least 3 other PD officers. Our street was lit up like a Christmas tree. We never found out if this was normal for them to send out 4 police cars, but we did find out that the first officer was the closest when the call came in, so that was why he was there.

That said, this instance does not sound like "standard protocol" to me.
It's one thing for them to initially respond and assist, it's another thing entirely to stay there, close down the center, and tape it off.

Not true, and your post is either done purposefully to put down working parents, or you are so ignorant that you don't understand that some parents want or need to work in order to put a roof over their heads and food on their table. Whichever it is, it doesn't paint you in a very flattering light.

This has been addressed. Talk about jumping to conclusions and not giving the provider "due process".
