I realize it would be best if there was no incidents to report, but since we have some incidents around here... I guess I am "glad" that this is what we read for our county!
PS: $3? Really just three dollars was all he needed and used a gun to get it? Once he was told "no," he left? And, someone was willing to say, "No you can't have $3" when the person asking for it was standing there with a gun? I guess I don't know what I would have done if that person rode his bike up to my house! I am stunned over the $3, though!! Maybe I should put a $5 bill in an envelope and tape it near the door... just in case!!
Yes, I often read the police logs, and find some of them are sort of funny . . it's surprising what people will do, and what they will call the police for.
ReplyDeleteThat is so funny! I snorted over the $3 and then had to explain to everyone!
ReplyDeleteHey, honey - thanks for the lunch money taped to the door!
ReplyDelete- POPS
That's funny :) I grew up in a small upper middle class neighborhood and when we read the police blotter, we knew who they were talking about haha! It was mostly just school kid pranks...like someone stealing the Bob's big boy "Big Boy" statue and placing it on the front lawn of the High school :)
ReplyDeleteI charge interest on all loans - even $5 loans, POPS. If you'd used a gun and force, that fiver woulda been yours free and clear. Although, it would have shown up in the local paper's police log.
ReplyDeleteWhile I often lament how far long it takes to drive to Target, I love living somewhere unexciting (crimninal-activity-wise, that is). I'm thinking about posting money on my door, too--it eliminates those pesky interruptions like (less than committed) armed robbers.
ReplyDeleteUmmm...sorry about the typos above. Guess I shouldn't be multi-tasking!
