Sorry Officer, I'm just here to play Ingress
in General
I just pulled up to a portal after a 20 mile drive, and there is a sheriff's vehicle parked directly at the portal. It is in the middle of not much on a dirt road. What the heck is he doing there? I knew the Enlightened were serious about defending their permafields, but I did not know they had security.
So, I make the turn onto the street, and I see the officer at the back of the vehicle is handcuffing someone. Could he be another Resistance player who went there to drop the giant fields?
I figured they would not be much longer, so I drove a bit down the street, not to interfere, or to cause the officer any stress about a random vehicle lurking as he made his arrest and came back after he left.

Been stopped multiple times by police whilst playing, Enl stooges everywhere!
I was at a community sports field today and decided to take out a portal a local player was using as an anchor. As I was walking over, I saw a police vehicle pull in and park near me, so I tried to look as inconspicuous as possible. I started hitting the resos, took down the field, started walking back, and saw that the Portal was suddenly flipped back and fully deployed! It was just the police officer and me alone in the field, so I decided to hang around for a bit.
I recaptured the Portal, walked away a bit, and watched. A few minutes later, another police car pulled up next to the first one, and I got an alert on comms that someone else was attacking me! The second car pulled off, I reclaimed the Portal, and went back to my car. As soon as I pulled out of the parking lot, I got an alert that the first player had taken the Portal.
Luckily being Resistance isn't illegal (yet) but it's good to know our local boys in blue are very firmly green.
