Yes. They still wait for backup on this kind of call.So you think there was two officers in the car and they still waited 2 minutes on a 911 call?
The sound has been edited in this video till right at the end. It is the cop car that stops for 2 minutes. The sound comes on right at the end and you hear the cop get out of the car, shut the door and walk around in front of the car then you hear a woman sigh.

Ok, then why did they sit two blocks away for 2 minutes?The second officer that has not exited the car yet. You can hear him shuffling papers around as he sighs.
That makes sense also. Probably more than my idea.Don't they wear some sort of device for talking into? Scanner thingy? Walkie talkie? LOL I have no idea what they're called. I think he had it on and sighed into it ....that's where it cut off but he may have been advising dispatch that he arrived at the home.
It's not the officer talking about the area. They are discussing on the news where the officer is shining his light, which in in the front yard of house that has a couple of very mature trees in the front yard. He is in the middle of an residential area - no woods. the woods are further to the south a couple of blocks and behind the houses on the west side.At least we have no shortage of things to argue over. In the car, out of the car, two officers in 1 car, 1 officer in 2 cars. Tree, trees, woods, etc.
In the pic posted of the neighborhood, it looks very wooded at the end of the street and I'm saying that as someone who currently lives in a very heavily wooded national forest. I can't listen to the recording, so I don't really know what is being referenced. But if the officer is talking about the area in general, I think wooded is a pretty accurate description of the area.

KCMO PD participates in the Explorer Program.
Perhaps the person in the car is on a ride-along??

I totally had not thought of that. I know several people that do these ride-alongs. They said it give them a whole new perspective as to what an officer is exposed to on a daily basis.KCMO PD participates in the Explorer Program.

The other car appears to be another KCPD patrol car coming to the scene and the dashcam car appears to be waiting for them to arrive before getting to the scene.. KCPD drive dark blue crown vic's. I thought, at first, that he was lost also. I then took a better look at the second car coming down the hill and it appears to be a KCPD unmarked car. A detective car maybe?I've watched the video with the "sigh" at the end and I can't tell if it's male or female but I do believe the person is in the car. As for the 2 minute stop, it seems to me he's trying to find his way to the house and may be getting further information from dispatch or he may be on his computer, or both!
After he gets going again he shines his search light on the street sign on the lamp post.
I do wonder why the car coming from the other direction turned it's headlights off.
Another thought.....
The first officer could be a patrol officer. I believe KCmo PD would dispatch a Corporal, Sargeant, to be in charge of the investigation.
jmo
They would send a ranking officer to head up the initial response. The dispatch logs covered that. But it was a matter of minutes before commanders and the detectives were being summoned once they realized for sure it wasn't just a burglary. The dispatch log thread should have that info. A corporal or sergeant would NOT be in charge of the investigation. Was much higher on the food chain.
