HOW TO CALL THE POLICE IF YOU'RE OLD
George Phillips, age 82, 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?'
He said 'No.' Then they said
'All patrols are busy. You should lock your doors and an officer will be
along when one is available.' George said, 'Okay'. He hung up the phone and
counted to 30.
Then he 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 just shot them' and hung up.
Within five minutes, six Police Cars , a SWAT Team , a Helicopter, two
Fire Trucks, a Paramedic, 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 shot them!'
George said, 'I thought you said there was nobody available!'

Don't mess with old people!
