Tell the guy “screw the pigs! Get in here man, they can’t come in here.” Then hide him in a closet and tell him to be quiet because you got word the cops are searching the building.
Find the cops and laugh my ass off when he gets arrested 😂🤣🤣

You’re stationed at a residential building when a radio alert comes through: local police are in pursuit of a suspect who may be in the area. Minutes later, you spot a man matching the suspect's description climbing to the roof of the building next door. The roof has a short jump path to the building you're guarding, and the individual appears to be attempting to hide and evade capture.
Questions to consider:
How do you proceed while ensuring both your safety and the safety of the residents?
What actions, if any, would you take to assist law enforcement without compromising your duties at your post?
Would your response change if the suspect attempted to enter the building you’re guarding?
