My friend sent me this article and said it’s from Australia. I don’t know if it actually happened, but it would be awesome if it did:

Round Like a Shot

Going to bed the other night I noticed people in my shed stealing things.

I phoned the police but was told no one was in the area to help. They said they would send someone over as soon as possible.

I hung up. A minute later I rang again. “Hello,” I said. “I called you a minute ago because there were people in my shed. You don’t have to hurry now because I’ve shot them.”

Within minutes there were half a dozen police cars in the area plus helicopters and an armed response unit. They caught the burglars red-handed.

One of the officers said, “I thought you said you’d shot them.”

To which I replied: “I thought you said there was no one available.”
