TIMING A CRIME
Find out when the police change shifts in the neighborhood where you plan to commit a crime. You can count on 25 minutes with no patrols starting with the last 15 minutes of the shift that's ending. During this time, policemen are usually writing up reports and talking to the incoming officers.

Not sure about that. Here, I believe the shifts are staggered.
