In Need Of A House Arrest
I’m calling the police to report a suspicious encounter I had.
Me: “So some guy accosted me in front of my house. He claimed that he’d lived in the house years ago when he was a kid, and he was wondering if he could check it out for, and I quote, “memories and old time’s sake”.”
Police: “Okay, and? Why do you think that was suspicious?”
Me: “He was scoping the place out to rob. I got camera footage of the guy from my doorbell camera, so you can see for yourself.”
Police: “How do you know he was scoping the place to rob? Maybe he really did use to live there?”
Me: “I built this house.”
Pause.
Police: “So, you have camera footage, you say?”
