Useless Cops | Sangent - The Daily Ramblings

submitted by Sang on 02.13.2006 in Jokes

One night last week I was going to bed when my wife pointed out that I’d stupidly left the light on in the garden shed. As I looked out of the window I noticed that there were several people in the shed, stealing our belongings. I immediately phoned the police who told me that there was nobody in that vicinity and that they’d send somebody over as soon as they were available.

I said “fine” then hung up. A minute later I rang back and said “Hi, I just called a minute ago regarding a burglary taking place in my shed. Well, I thought I’d let you know that there is no need to worry because I’ve just shot them all.”

Three minutes later a dozen police vehicles and armed response workers were on my premises and naturally they caught the burglars red-handed.

One of the officers said, “Hey, I thought you said you’d shot them all?”

I responded, “I thought you said nobody was available!”
