Kinda late the other night, the wife had gone to bed, I was watching the tube. The door bell rings, and I looked out to see a young hispanic male, shaved head, wearing all black. I cracked the door open and he said his car had broke down a couple of blocks and needed to use my phone.
Flags one and two, why did he walk a couple of blocks to use just my phone. In this day and age, doesnt everyone have a cell phone?
I told him to standby and went and got the portable phone and my Kel Tec, racked the slide and returned to the door. Pistol behind my back, I handed him the phone. I think he heard the Kel Tec being racked as his eyes where a little bigger. He called a number and was a bit jittery and said "come on this is really serious." Someone picked up and then hung up, he called a couple of other numbers but no answer. He handed me back my phone and left.
I called the cops and told them what happen, just in case he called because of the gun, which he never did see.
Its kinda amazing how fast they show up when the word gun is used. The dispatcher called and asked where my gun was, and I told them it was on the desk. She said the the two officers outside where coming to the door. They asked if I had a gun and told them no. I showed my hands and relayed the above story. They left to go look for him, We left town for a few days the following morning. Rest a assured that the alarms where all set.
Aside from not answering the door at all what else should have been done or not done?
