But the court disagreed, saying
the law simply does not recognize
this kind o f a claim.
It is true that all members of
the community are entitled to rea
sonable police protection. But
this is a general, not a specific,
right. It (Iocs not mean that each
victim of a crime, if he can point
to some police error, can collect
damages from the city govern

The reasoning is mainly prag

Nevertheless, under certain cir
cumstances, a person may indeed
have a special right to police pro
tection. Consider the problem of
the person who Is an informer or
a material witness in a forthcom
ing trial. If he is in danger, the
city is likely to be held responsi
ble for his safety.
“ Otherwise,” said one court, “ it
might become difficult to con
vince the citizen to cooperate with
law enforcement officers.”
In one unusual case, the family
of a suicide victim tried to blame
the city because the police had
missed a chance to prevent the
tragedy. They said officers had
come out to investigate a fam ily
quarrel, then left with things still
unsettled.
But the city was exonerated.
The court said even if the officers
should have stayed longer, they
still could not fairly have fore
seen that the man would take his
own life.
