I just received a call in which someone who sounded much like someone I know called to say they were being held hostage at a local eatery less than a quarter mile from where I live. I got my gear (gun/holster) but as I went to respond, however, I noticed an LEO car sitting on the corner, next door to the restaurant, and asked my friend (still on the line) if she'd called 911. The line went dead, and when I called her back, she said, in a slightly different voice, more like hers, "What the hell you talking about?"
I checked my phone, no return number, so nothing to report. I called the restaurant, and same response: "Everything's normal here."
I tell you, all sorts of alarm bells are going off in my head right now. LEO entrapment? Prank caller with a marked car on the corner next to the restaurant? Thank God I called her back on her line!
Not falling for this sort of shi, er, crap. Ever. What I'm most concerned about is WTF is going on with this call? I called a very good friend on the force, and they're as genuinely perplexed as I am. Happened minutes ago.
Grr...
