Did the Latvian police really import some of their patrol cars all the way from Australia…

…just so they could lie belly-up on the grass, wheels pointed accusingly at the sky?

Well, not quite. The true story is far less exotic—just a minor crash, fortunately without any serious injuries.

What truly caught the public’s attention, however, was the rapid response. In mere moments, the scene was swarming with a small army of police vehicles—nearly a dozen. A sharp contrast to the usual wait that, in some cases, stretches into hours before the first officer appears.
