I was a 'ride along' with the local police one night.
We got an assist call to help another officer on a breakin in progress.
A woman called to report someone breaking into her house.
We took off 'code 3' quite a few miles from the scene.
We got about 1/2way there when it was discovered by the officer on the scene that an errant balloon left over from a birthday party was caught in the ceiling fan.
hehe ! My cousin is a retired Dallas Policeman. He has shared a few interesting stories with us ...
