How to get Police attention


George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi was going up to bed when his
wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she
could see from the bedroom window.

George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there
were people in the shed stealing things. He phoned the police, who
asked "Is someone in your house?" and he said "no". Then they said that
all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an
officer would be along when available.

George said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police
again. "Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were
people in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now cause
I've just shot them all." Then he hung up.

Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response unit, and an
ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the burglars
red-handed. One of the Policemen said to George: "I thought you said
that you'd shot them!" George said, "I thought you said there was
nobody available!" (True Story) I LOVE IT.
