In the early morning of yesterday (the 6th), a conflict between drinkers and crowds occurred outside a well-known hotel on Baoshan Street, Taoyuan City, Taoyuan City. Afterwards, it was reported that police officials were involved in the case. The City Police Department said today that the parties involved, the investigation team leader Wu and Wen, Liu and Zhang went to the hotel box to mediate the dispute "without reporting". According to the "Police Personnel Reward and Punishment Standards", Wu will be punished with a major demerit and will be transferred to the administrative police. Wen will receive two demerits, and Liu and Zhang will each receive one demerit.

According to the investigation of the Municipal Police Department, a total of four criminal police officers from the Dayuan and Zhongli branch investigation teams and anti-criminal squads received information beforehand and learned that gang members were under the police's control. Suspected of previous disputes, they may meet for negotiations. In order to prevent gang conflicts and possible violence, based on public security maintenance and preventive measures, We went to a restaurant in Longtan to learn about the case; after the meal, the four people went to the hotel room to mediate the dispute without reporting it. Later, due to a conflict at the scene, they all left first and reported the situation to the unit supervisor, and then filled out the "Report on Contact with Specific Persons" in accordance with the above regulations for review.

The Municipal Police Department said that after the incident, it proactively notified relevant personnel and police officers present to investigate the case, and reviewed relevant information and images to clarify the facts and whether there were any violations of relevant regulations. However, the police cadres set foot in the hotel and drank alcohol. After the conflict occurred at the scene, they did not immediately notify the police in the area under their jurisdiction and failed to handle it properly. It is true that improper response has led to accidents and seriously affected the reputation of the police. The police will never shy away from the misconduct of police officers on duty. They adhere to the principle of "police discipline and police handling, and do not indulge in injustice." If any other violations of laws and disciplines by police officers are discovered, they will be investigated in accordance with the law and will not be lenient. All police officers are required to take warning to avoid similar incidents from happening again.
