So just now, I heard some lady crying and screaming "Let go of me!! I can't!!" and some dude was yelling "SHUT UP and GET UP STAIRS!! You broke my glasses!! I hate you!!". I'm sittin here thinking that she's getting raped/abused so I wake my parents (it was 1am) and they call the police. They go upstairs and they happen to live in my part of the building so we can hear everything. When the cops get there- it turns out she was drunk as heck and all he was trying to do was get her home. The cops were talking to them and she's all "We durnt have tatoooos heha I just got my harr colored SEEee now I have dark brown haaaaiir" and the cops are like "We don't care, are you okay?" and the guy was like "She needs to stop being drunk..." 

So, my question to you is: Have you ever heard/witnessed some ~suspicious~ activity in your neighborhood (or anywhere I guess) and had to call the cops?

Haha, the poor guy. Just trying to help her out and she causes a massive scene.
Drunk people fliping out is nothing new, nor the police being called, i pity the police, those are some of the crapiest call outs they get.

Wow....Drunkies. I expected more from the cops.
I had too much drama back in L.A with car crashes, robberies, and Vandalism. Rough neighborhood to live in (even though it was considered a "great place to raise kids") I didn't call the cops due to the fact I was 1-13 years of age living there. What to do when young :p

I have heard a lot of screaming and arguing from people in the neighborhood, but you can hear so clearly that you pretty much know what is going on. So I have never had to call the cops out of a sense of danger for anyone in the arguments. I hope that I never have to. 

I've never really heard/ seen anything like that. The only time of something suspicious was when I saw this 3 year old kid walking with this super tall dude and he was like yelling for no reason. I walked home and acted like I never saw anything.

Wow, I would seriously be worried about living near someone like that. I would hate to risk not receiving help when needed if the people in the building / the cops were used to false calls in a boy-who-cried-wolf sort of scenario.

Of course, that cannot really be helped in some cases. I personally have only called the cops on account of car wrecks in which I was involved in order for the area to be cleared off before more people join the wreckage.

No suspicious activity as of yet, hopefully just a sign that my neighborhood is a little on the safe side... I do live a ways off from the city, so that might account for some of it.

Whenever I hear neighbors screaming I can hear it and it sometimes get serious to the point where a fight breaks out. I never have to call the police because someone else always does. The police always comes quick since a police station is about 6 blocks away.

I actually live in a pretty good neighborhood. Occasionally you might hear gun fire but that's only because sometimes we get huge snakes and the cops come out the get rid of them. But so far nothing too dangerous. Yeah no place is crime free but we get that like maybe one every 4 years or something.

Heh... My family got wrapped up in an issue that occurred next door. Basically, what it wound down to was my next door neighbor shot his wife through the head. Instant death. Here's the actual news report:

http://www.annistonstar.com/view/full_story/13340556/article-Anniston-police-investigating-homicide-on-Moore-Avenue--midnight-update-

I will state that the news report is not accurate. For starters, there was closer to 40 dogs. (The family was hoarders and we were well aware of this and kept calling the city out to take care of it.) None of the dogs bite, nor were any of the police officers bitten. Some of the dogs were barking, yes, but what do you expect? The dogs were unable to be contained within the house because they had literally chewed the bottom half of the door to bits from never being allowed outside.

Preston (the guy) claimed that it was an accident - that he was cleaning the gun. I think it was temporary insanity type thing. (Old couple, and they obviously had mental issues) Geri was dead on impact. If I remember correctly, it was a 457 Magnum, Double Barrel gun.

Regardless, Preston called 911 himself. He was terrified and confused and asking for help from my family. The police questioned all of us; the entire ordeal took nearly six hours to clean up. The house is now boarded up and being completely unused.

unknown0s : Yes there have been a few times unfortunately where I have heard arguments between neighbors and or doors slamming and such. It’s not a pleasant thing but I personally have never called the police or anything. I basically just try to keep to myself for the most part but if there was something like that going on I would probably have a similar reaction and response. It is wise though to really be sure that you need to call someone before you do it. You never want to jump the gun on things like that especially if it’s of a private nature and doesn’t really concern you.
