a suspect

Please correct me if you see any mistakes. Thanks in advance.

Even though you notice a strager in danger on the street, dont' try to help him/her directly. Just call an emergency rescuer for the following two reasons. First, If a stranger is injured by the crime, there is a possibility that the police will doubt you as a major suspect because some cirminals call the police after comming a crime to avoid being a suspect.

There is little internal logic in your paragraph. Perhaps you mean this: If you notice crime victims on the street, don't try to help them or call the police directly , but call another emergency rescuer, like the fire department. Otherwise, the police may take you for a major suspec t, because some cirminals call the police after committing a crime precisely to avoid becoming a suspect.

Hi.
A small cultural comment on the meaning.

I've read that this 'don't call the police' viewpoint is held in some countries in the Far East. It's not one that is widely shared in N. America, in my experience.
