My funny encounter with the police

[Amaror]

Ok i got one. Not really funny but unusual, sure.
So i was out with some friends waiting with a couble of beers for the bus to come.
When the bus came, one of my friends quickly finished his beer and put the bottle on the ground near the bus station.
We got in, had a fun night, and since the busses don't drive very late we walked home.
On our way we come to the same bus station were we started and see that the beer bottle is still there.
So, out of fun, the same friend that drank that bottle earlier, kicks the bottle.
The bottle then flies right through one of the glass windows of the bus station, shattering the glass, but the bottle itself was still completely intact.
So we continue our journey, when suddenly a car drives on a parking spot right in front of us, 3 guys rush out, say they are the police and want us to admit the demolition of the bus station. The friend who did it admitted it, but since it was incidental, it wasn't too bad.
Funny thing about that was that the police really tried to be tough to get us to admit fault, but while we were arguing two of the cops go a little bit out of the way and one of them says
"Are you sure it's them, we only know its 5 teenagers, could be anybody!"
Funny thing was all of us heard them say that, because they were not that quit when talking.

a friend and i were driving back from a warmachine tournament at around 11 give or take from our local comic store and everything was going fine until my friend proceed to attempt a "rolling stop" at a stop sign needless to say the officer hiding in the dark did not see it that way, so right after we passed the stop sign, the lights went on and we heard the WOOP WOOP. now my friend had already had a few run ins with the law and a few tickets he needed to pay, but this ticket would completely break him finaccley,so needless to say at this point im freaking out (iv never been in trouble with the cops and iv pretty much lived my life around a good few and have had nothing but pleasant experience with the police so this was a new unpleasant feeling...even though i was completely fine).so we scramble to find all the papers for him all the while i getting more nervuos and my friend is getting more despondent about the whole situation, and then the funniest thing happens. the cop asks why were out out tonight so i reach into the back seat go into my hobby/work box and pull out my warhammer fantasy skaven warlord(that i really need to redo one day....)and tell him that we just came back from the comic store because we were painting and playing with miniatures.so he takes the mini examines it with his flashlight hands it back to me and lets my friend go with just a warning then we proceed to drive off afterwards all the while have a discussion about fate and philosophy all the way home.


TL/DR:miniatures helped save my friend from financial bankruptcy and legal action all in one night!

Just over 3 years ago when my mum's partner's son was briefly on the run after an attempted armed robbery the first place the police decided to check was our house. Luckily I didn't open the front window for some air like I was thinking about doing because there were four officers outside, each carrying an mp5.

After we'd carefully and slowly opened the door and they'd told us what they were there for (we'd no idea where he'd gone or what he'd been doing that night until then) they just had a tea or coffee each whilst they filled in some paperwork and off they went.

Let's see:
A group of us doing a drunken sign stealing just as a police car went by they screeched to halt and while most of us legged it down the footpath 1 of the guys decided to run down the road. Afterwards he told us he had a telling off and let him go on his way.

1st day moving into a rented house at the end of a terrace and seeing a 10 man police raid on the 1st house, just remember thinking yep I've moved into a great neighbourhood.

Finally same terrace but seeing another of the houses on offer so myself and my housemate decided to have a look around, at 10 at night, using the spare key the landlord left under the flower pot. Ended up we tripped on the stairs made some crashing and banging sounds and when we left 1 of the neibours was looking around I nodded in greeting and we both left for our house. 1/2 an hour later housemate realises his glasses are missing so opens the door and see's a couple of policemen checking out the place we just looked at.

Well, one time we were playing football in a small patch of grass next to a church. There were some graves in one corner, but we didn't go near that. Anyway, this plastic policeman (read community support officer who aren't really police) came over to us and told us to leave.

We weren't doing anything illegal, so I didn't see why we should, so I said "Are we breaking a law?" he said, and I shit you not "I AM the law". Suffice to say I laughed my ass off. He went next door to the police station to get a real officer, who came over and said that although he can't really do anything, he would like it if we left out of respect, so we went. And by next door, I mean we were literally between the church and the police station.

When I was in high school me and some friends were out mucking about. A bit later on the in the night a police car was driving up the street we were in, we were pretty bored by this point, so we decided to start running to see if they'd chase us, they did. We were running for a few minutes before we turned into a dead end so they managed to catch us up. When they got up to us they were like "Why did you all run? What have you done?" and we were just like "Nothing, we just thought it would be funny."

They didn't find it funny.

Walking home from doing my radio show one night through the science park and small area of overgrown foliage and trees behind it to get to the long road I had to walk down in the dead of night, and it's raining quite hard, I didn't own a raincoat, but I did have a hoody on which had my name in huge letters on it, as well as identification of the university radio station and the name of my show. It's like 11pm, raining really hard, and I'm trying to stay as dry as possible with my hood up so I can almost keep my hair and face dry (but not fully). One of those PCSOs comes up to me when I reach the road and demands that I take my hood down and make my face visible... I pointed out that I was trying to prevent pneumonia, and he repeated his request, so I took my hood down, and he said that I was clear to go home, but that I shouldn't have my hood on in the dark... Needless to say, I felt pretty shitty the next few days. Jobsworth nutcase to blame.

I had a friend who had the police called on him for having long hair and walking around a neighborhood at night. After they decided this wasn't actually a crime, he said: "Well, now that we've got that all sorted out, could you chase me anyway? I'm curious about how far I'd get."

I was playing disc (frisbee) golf once and an officer stopped me and asked if he could use his radar gun on my disc toss. It was pretty cool.

I got caught up in a huge police operation on the way back from a late shift once (something about radical muslims kidnapping/trying to behead a squaddie). Only issue was that they threw the cordon up after my motorcycle was over the bridge, and as far as the armed units were concerned there were no civilians in the cordon.

After the third time I was dragged off my bike and had an MP5 shoved in my face one of the officers just told me to get out of the area, regardless of traffic rules.

I cut through a shopping mall, on a motorcycle. It was awesome.

 

[Fappy]

I have a few unfortunate stories about the police. Generally just them being ass holes. There was this one time a cool cop drove me to class after my friend wrecked his car. He told me what all the buttons and switches did. It was awesome.

Well, there was this one time where after killing a State Senator for sleeping with my wife, the police officer hauling me off to jail and I got started talking.
Now he wasn't really paying much attention to the road, so he hadn't seen the jaywalking pedestrian right up until after the crash.
I woke up several days later in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, real crazy stuff, man.

I was waiting outside a train station in London when I got searched by two undercover cops.

Apparently I was looking suspicious due to me standing outside it watching people leave the place, and they thought I might be waiting to mug somebody. In actual fact I was there because I was waiting for some friends to arrive as we were going to the cinema.

What makes it funny is that I was dressed so conspicuously that I could have been picked out of a line up of around 50 people within seconds, and I was wearing a pair of boots so impractical that a toddler could probably outrun me.

But of course, bored police need to get their quota of searched people per day and all that (while ignoring the group of teenagers who were hanging around the same station the entire time that I was there).

Funniest encounter I ever had: I was with a girl, we had gone to the movies and so afterwards we found a quiet spot to go park and everything. We weren't doing anything but we see these bright lights (not police lights just lights). Being winter we thought it might be a snow plow or something so we turn on the car and put it in gear when I hear a tap on the glass. The car behind me was a cop and she looks in (the windows are fogged because its winter) and shes like whats going on here (making sure the girl is safe and everything), she looks into my car and recognizes the girl im with; apparently the cop was good friends with the girls mother. Instant game killer right there. Funny now though

Well not funny to me because it ruined my pharmacology career. It was 1971, I'm driving down the highway listening to my electric hits 8-track tape smoking a joint I'd just got my degree in pharmacology. Then the cops pull me over, after the standard DUI tests the cop took a hit of my joint and busted me for drugs, man.

Spoiler

That didn't really happen, it's the opening scene from The 51st State. Good film.

 

[Adultism]

One time we were rolling back to where I live after a trip, it was 5 hours home so we smoked the entire time. Well yeah she was driving 80 in my car so yeah we got pulled over. This cop comes up to the window and is like, "See that plane up there?" She looks and nods. "Well it recorded your speed over a mile so you were speeding and you get a ticket." We had the pot in a backpack RIGHT behind us easy reach just in case we wanted to pull some out and we had JUST finished a joint. It obviously reeked but the cop was cool because we told him that we were from out of state heading home and he just gave her the ticket and told her to be careful. Not too funny but it was strange.

I was 16 and walking through the mall after having bought a new video-game. I looked suspicious as fuck because my fringe was over my face, I hadn't showered in days and I'd been sleeping in the same clothes for days on end. I was wearing a jacket and trousers, both warm because it was winter. As I was walking in the direction of the cops I almost cried with laughter. I looked so shifty and they threatened me with some serious shit if I didn't tell them the truth and details of who I really was.
