Default Another Uninformed Citizen called me in

I forgot to take anything out to thaw this morning, so I had to hit a local fast food joint to get dinner. And yes, it had bacon.

As I'm sitting there munching away by the window, a local squad car rolls into the parking lot. He caught my eye since he was cruising past the window I was sitting near. He waved hello from his car, then held his hand up to his ear with his thumb and pinky sticking out in the shape of a telephone receiver. Without saying a word, he told me someone called in a MWAG, and he corrected them, and was just swinging by to have a look. I waved a friendly "see ya later" (because I am sure we'll cross paths again) and off he went.

This was the same officer from the McDonald's a couple weeks ago who came in to inform me that they are educating the public when they call in about me.

very nice! lol I'm attempting to get the cops in my area to do the same. The cops in New Cumberland and Newberry are cool about it. I haven't had a run in with the Farivew PD yet though... They happen to be the only ones that I'm worried about though!

Except when they call in while you are getting assaulted, right?

Was it at least a Wendy's this time so he knows you're moving up from Mcnuggets? We have to show these officers that we're refined connoisseurs of bacon-laden delicacies and are willing to defend them at all costs.

It's nice to know that the police in your area get it and inform the callers of the law.
