There’s some good police out there. One time one of my family members had a suicide attempt while drunk with me around, I had to physically fight and restrain them, luckily someone called the police because they heard the struggle, and when they came one of them sat with my family member and talked to them until they calmed and sobered down. They stayed with us for a bit to make sure they wouldn’t have to take my family member to the hospital, and then told me I could call them anytime if anything else happened. I felt very thankful after that.
