The SFPD is making no friends among the top brass of other Bay Area police departments, with their LED mobile billboard going right into other departments' parking lots offering their cops higher pay to jump ship. The San Francisco Police Department has been complaining for years that they are short-staffed. But staffing shortages are hobbling police departments all over the Bay Area, and really, across the entire country. The SFPD decided to get cute this week in a move to recruit more officers, and in doing so, has other Bay Area police departments pretty outraged.
