    Sure, they get some information from radios. They also usually have at least one person at the headquarters at all times. They will know about big events regardless.

      I forgot that police have no filters or power in person to be more private in discussions about sensitive topics just because there’s a person at their precinct. All conversations happen wide open just like you get with a police-band scanner. 🤦🏻‍♂️
