“He’s only got one leg, careful, he’ll hop at you!”
A number of years back the couple across the street had a domestic dispute relatively late at night-—she left the house to him and called the cops. The guy only has one hand.
Early in the morning there is police activity, most immediately a bull horn sounding “come out with your hands up”-—I’ve got a sniper on my front porch and another in my wood pile before the cops even contact me.
The neighbor next door on his side of the street related that he had shouted several times “I’ve only got one hand” and she had approached the police to ensure that his claw wasn’t mistaken for a gun.
Eventually they sent his mother in who got him out—but we must of had 60-120 cops out total (in a hamlet of about 1200).
