Rodents Taking Over Raccoon Street Police Station

It’s not just crime that officers at the Racoon Street Police Station are battling, now they’re up against a rodent infestation too. Assistant Superintendent of Police Stacy Smith confirmed the issue during today’s weekly press briefing, saying exterminators have already been called in. But while pest control is on the way, there’s a bigger concern: how are officers expected to stay motivated while working in a leaky, rodent-infested building?
