    One old-timer I used to work with told me about one time several of his neighbors were out in the street yelling and pushing & shoving, and the cops said they'd be 40 min to an hour.

    He hung up, thought about it, then called back and told them there was a naked 20 year-old woman running around out there.

    Presto! Police!

    A certain female I know once called the sheriff's office and told them to send the coroner right away. The dispatcher asked who had died. She said that it would be her ex husband as soon as he finished breaking down the front door. Deputies arrived soon after.[8D]

    True Story, I was there.
    A good ole boy from around these parts saw a man with his pirogue
    about to put it in the creek that runs along my place. He stopped
    with some of his friends and held the young man and called the
    police. By this time a small crowd had gathered in front of my
    place and noticing this I walked out to see what was going on.
    The owner of the pirogue told me the story and he had called the
    police. 20 mins later he called again and was told there would be a unit out there as soon as they had one available. 40 mins later
    he called back and was told he would have to wait. He told the
    dispatcher if there isn't a unit out here in 10 mins there was
    going to be a killin' to just send the coroner. 5 mins later
    a unit arrives with lights and siren with 3 more behind him 2 mins
    later.
