HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND DON'T

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!"
