how to call the police

[robert321]

George Phillips of Gold Coast, Australia 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. ( Boy does this sound familiar! )

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 stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I've just shot them." 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!"

That scenario happened to my cousin one winter in New Jersey. He lives lakeside and there were hunters on the ice firing shotguns and his home was getting peppered with shot, his wife had called him home from work and he phoned the police, but because they stay in a 'state park', the normal police said it was the duty of the state rangers who in turn said it was the town police. So he said if you will not deal with it then he would get his own gun and deal withit himself.......5 minutes sirens could be heard coming up the road. He was arrested mind you....but he never got his gun out. Frightening really.
