You are not required to talk to the polilce. On the other hand giving the police misinformation if you do talk to them may get you a criminal charge.

If you want the assistance of an attorney in dealing with the police you can call me if you like.

Hi:

This really depends on the particular set of facts and circumstances of the reason the officer wants to question you about your friend.

Good Luck

You have to give police your information if they ask you who you are, where you live, etc. Other than that, you don't have to tell them anything about anyone.
