I just wanted to share this because things like this always seem to happen to me.
We were relaxing at home at about 1 or 2pm today, and my daughter ran in my bedroom, saying "there's somebody outside, yelling, help me! Help me!" He was apparently at the front door, trying to get in.
So, my wife and I ran to the door, and looked through the peephole. We didn't see anybody at first, but we looked out the window, and saw some guy in his mid-50's trying to open our car doors. He was stumbling around everywhere, saying "somebody help me!" He must have thought he saw old Captain Morgan in the back seats of my cars.
So, I opened the front door. I asked if there was something I could help him with. When I said that, he looked in the opposite direction, and took off. My wife called 911, and the operator took all of our information: her name, address, etc.
Then, the operator, said to hold because she didn't realize we lived outside of the city limits.
Our phone then got disconnected. We waited around for awhile anyway, because surely the operator would relay the information to someone when nobody responded to the incident. But, here it is, after 1 am, and no one ever came.
I'm glad we didn't have a real emergency, or we would have been in trouble!
