According to my hubby: Riggs is a Maricopa county intersection...meaning that a Maricopa Sheriff should have been there directing traffic if not a DPS officer! BUT because a camera crew were not there Sheriff Joe Arpaio didnt dispatch anybody!! Once again it is Az's DPS/Sheriff dept at its finest!!-He even called to complain and was told a traffic light is out and crews are on their way to fix it BUT no traffic officer would not be dispatched WTH??
Your hubby is technically right, that intersection is within Maricopa County. However, more appropriately, it falls within the Gila River Indian Community. So if DPS was not there to handle an event on a state highway, a Gila River PD unit would have been the next choice. Not MCSO. |
