Anyone got anything they like to share from police scanners that's either funny, weird or just plain crazy?
Post said shit here.

I used to listen to them. Mostly domestic violence call outs

My neighbor has one across the street and I find out why we lost power just by going over to his house and he usually gets reports of a car hitting the pole, a tree falling or lightning (very rare up here to have a lightning induced power outage, but common where i lived in Florida.)
But ya, I get nothing exciting when I was listening to it. Common things like "person not breathing, paramedics please report to x location"

Depends on where you live I guess.
More exciting things include:
- A man having a piss on the side of the road
- Two pursuits
- Graffiti
- Druggies selling their favourite green vegetable
- Loiterers
- Teens soliciting in the local shopping mall (ended in a foot pursuit)

You're loitering with intent, better call it in

Police in Athens, Georgia are fun to listen to. "African American male, beat his girlfriend with a rod, I think he's- AH SHIT! bang bang bang" then they switch over to a private channel. Always domestic stuff, though. Not like the Atlanta police, who usually deal with disorderly conduct which sometimes gets violent.

Heard a call just come in, guy in a park offering oral sex. Apparently he likes to be searched by young female officers. The RTO sent a patrol car with two males to check the location, and closed the transmission with 'I'm sure he'll like that.'
LMFAO.

Haha! Classic. They always switch at the perfect time. Either by saying something sarcastic like that or when shit is getting heated.

I know it's not quite the same, but I was giving a police statement once and the police radio said, "We've just stopped a man taking photographs of the MI6 building."

I've never been inside a police station, but I was stopped by a cop (before I had my mobility scooter) for misjudging that a crossing was devoid of cars (a police divisional van came up right behind me and had to slam on its brakes. I talked to the officer for awhile. Very friendly, he asked if business was booming. I pointed to the scanner and said 'Business is a little slow.' We then talked a little about road and crossing safety and he left.)
Heard this all on the portable scanner I used to have too :)
