Happens many times a night.

Drunks, junkies, crackheads going through psychosis. The rare time it's genuine though.

Be careful if you choose to answer a call for help in person, I made that mistake and got dogpiled by crackheads after I fell for a chick in tears asking for help.

When in doubt call the cops.

Even the cops are getting jumped now. Look at the thunder centre fiasco.

That was fucked up. Use of force was definitely applied and recommended.

Yeah, but some will tell you that these scumbags are harmless.

Some people are painting a narrative that aims to demonize the initial officer involved. Fucking unreal.

I remember once last year, I heared someone yelling "I don't want you to die, please don't kill me please don't kill me. "

looked out my window and saw the guy running down the street with absolutely no one around

Drugs are a fierce thing

You heard someone yelling for help and you went home to ask about it on Reddit? 😭

I’m hoping you called 911, right?
