I find it doubly hilarious because of the journalist’s years-long quest to obtain the footage
Comment on Video released of LAPD ignoring robbery to catch Togetic in Pokémon Go

It's worth noting this happened 6 years ago both of the cops were fired.
Listening to the audio and reading transcripts is hilarious. These guys are like a couple teenagers riding around discussing Pokemon, just completely ignoring their superiors trying to contact them on radio asking why they didn't respond, it's wild.

6 years ago? Was togetic's catch rate still bugged them? It was practically uncatchable at launch (only crit catches worked)

Asking the important questions.

I don’t think it was bugged for that long, something like a couple weeks

The question is, what has happened in the LAPD from this exact event occurring again? This amount of negligence and selfishness is absolutely still happening.
Hell, the fact that it took SIX YEARS to get this footage is damming all by itself. I want to be amused by the childish nature of this all, but goddamnit does the whole situation make me angry.

At the end of the article it says they were fired.
