Yes, just as the McMichael’s and another caller did to report on him (Arbery). He could have had a good laugh;two cop cars responding to hear complaints from both sides.
Or maybe he didn’t have a phone on him? Is there a clever millennial term for going out in public (”jogging”) without a cell phone? “Going commando,” “going rogue?”
Well, as a casual jogger/home construction aficionado, he could be assumed to want to clear up such a simple misunderstanding with a pleasant discussion with the residents and friendly local law enforcement officials.
