ATLANTA — Some Atlanta residents say they have major concerns over police response times after calling 911.

One neighbor told Channel 2's Lauren Pozen that a man crashed into multiple cars along his street, causing thousands of dollars worth of damage – and then lingered in the neighborhood.

“The guy hit my car head on, stopped about right here and then backed into my wife car,” neighbor Michael Compton told Pozen, showing her the direction the car was going.

Compton said he has nearly $8,000 worth of damage between his wife’s car and his. But that’s not why he reached out to Channel 2 Action News.

“I am really more concerned about why it took over two hours for somebody to show up here,” Compton said.

He said the incident happened two weeks ago around 10:30 p.m.
