According to Saikhan they were spread too thinly. There seems to be way more Equalists than there are metalbending cops. Though with a desperate time like this, I would probably contact the bending gangs to help out. The police are pretty much defeated, it's going to be three days before help arrives and the city has been bombed out. At this point they should take all the help they can get.
