In my neighborhood in Seattle I've seen a tweaked-out individual literally just walking down the street spray-painting cars at around 6pm on a weekday.

I called the police and they told me all officers were busy on more urgent/violent calls and wouldn't be able to respond.

This was before COVID and the department is even more short-staffed now.
