This sounds like the joke that has made the internet rounds over and over, and someone tried to apply in real life:surprise_i'm_armed wrote:http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/art ... QD9BSUI5G3
Tyler, Texas.
A man who wanted a fast response from Tyler PD told 911 that he had just committed
a murder and had a weapon.
It was a ruse. He told responding officers he just said that to get a quicker response from
them for a simple assault call.
Their response was to immediately arrest him for filing a false report.
Brain surgeon no doubt.
SIA
(Short version!):
"Hello, 9-1-1, someone is breaking into my storage building."
"Okay, we'll have a deputy there as soon as possible."
"How soon?"
"Expected response time is 30-45 minutes."
"Never mind, I shot them. Send the coroner instead".
*(Five minutes later, after three units screech up Code 3)* "I thought you said you shot them!"
"I thought you said you couldn't be here for 30 minutes!"
