Uncovering Evidence and Lost Case Files: Inside an Abandoned Police Precinct
In this new Freaktography abandoned places video, I head into an abandoned police station with power. Inside we find abandoned jail cells, a police station evidence room and more.
Inside this abandoned police station we also find fingerprints and fingerprinting materials, cameras to document evidence, billy clubs, more jail cells, flash grenades, bulletproof vests and so much more!
This now abandoned police station opened in 1962 as the local police headquarters in a violent and crime-ridden city.
The police headquarters building, plagued by health concerns from its asbestos insulatio was said to have looked shabby and rundown on its best days. The station went out of service in May 2009 and has been abandoned ever since.
Officers and detectives who worked in this facility described it as reminiscent of police stations as they were portrayed on TV in “Barney Miller” or “Hill Street Blues.”
