I had two incidents with the North Wildwood police while walking

North Wildwood - I had two incidents with the North Wildwood police while walking on the boardwalk. The first was a couple weeks back when a fight broke out and they just stood there while it was going on. The other was a few nights ago when I told them that I lost my wallet. I explained to them what happened and they said it was Wildwood police that had to take the report. Are we wasting our tax dollars?
