Alexander's just going to have to check it out for himself and, if the situation warrants it, call for backup, negotiators or even a SWAT team.
Alexander says that almost every time he has to put on his lights and speed to a crime scene, the department gets complaints from residents — and someone has to explain why it's important for police to drive fast sometimes.
Alexander is a living reminder that whether you pair cops with neighborhoods or pool them centrally, whether you focus on prevention or on punishment and whether you call it community policing or something else, law enforcement boils down to men and women in uniform patrolling, answering calls and dealing with crises.

 Alexander Polyhistor [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
Lucius Cornelius Alexander Polyhistor was a Greek scholar, imprisoned by the Romans in the war of Sulla against Mithridates of Pontus and brought as a slave to Rome for employment as a tutor.

At last, we could consider the fragment of Polyhistor (quoted above) as a quite successful attempt to reconcile Pythagorean concepts of the unity, their doctrine of numbers as the beginning of all things, and simultaneously to include matter in the Pythagorean explanation of the origin of the sensibly acceptable world.
