Topic: How to get the police out fast

[Rik]

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 the
officer 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 hung up the phone.



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 Policeman said to GEORGE, 'I thought you said that you'd shot them !'

GEORGE said, 'I thought you said there was nobody available !'




Don't Mess with Old People.
