I gotta tell all y'all about this crazy crap that went down last night.

I woke up at about 1-1:30 AM to this incessant pounding coming from an adjacent apartment. After a while, I noticed there was screaming along with the pounding. I listened for a few minutes trying to figure out what was going on, and it sounded like someone was screaming for help. It was totally freaking me out. I mean it was f'n blood-curdling.

So I got up and called 911. They sent a squad over to check it out. I tried to go back to bed and just wait for the screaming and pounding to stop, but it didn't. There was no way I could sleep through that, or sleep knowing I might have done something more to help. I decided to get some clothes on and go make sure the cops got to the right room, and then I went back inside. I heard what sounded like a door being broken down. A few minutes later, two more cops went into the building.

About 10 or 15 minutes went by and there was a ring at my door. The first cop who I'd guided toward the disturbance wanted to get my name, address, and phone numbers. He said that what happened was the guy who lived in that apartment had come home from work around midnight, went to take a shower, and when he went to leave his bathroom the doorknob fell off from the inside. The guy completely flipped out. He had been stuck in there for over an hour and was pounding on the walls so hard that it knocked out the electricity to the bathroom.

The cop said that the guy was so happy that I called the cops out that he wanted to "buy me a bottle of booze." ?:| Whatever.

Anyway, it's the blood-curdling screams that really made my evening. plain

He offered to buy you a beer? Well, maybe I could encourage a certain doorknob in my house to come off...

That exact same thing happened to me in a hotel in Cincinnati. Some old lady somehow got stuck in her bathroom in the hotel, and woke me up in the middle of the night screaming "Help me, help me" and pounding on the walls. So I called the front desk and they came and jimmied her out.

I didn't get a bottle of booze though. sad

Good story Jotun?? ?:| Who the hell do you think is telling this story?

And for the record, booze and beer are two entirely different things. At least in Milwaukee, anyway.

LOL!!!!!! laugh

That screaming was beginning to scare me until I read the last part. A guy actually died in front of my neighbor's house yesterday. That was pretty creepy, since I was at home at the time.... cry

I don't really know what happened. My mom told me when she got home and just told me that our neighbor found a body in front of their house.

Stupid ghetto neighborhoods. angry
