Who knew exercise could possibly get you arrested.......no s

So this story (true story) is to good to pass up sharing.

Last night -- around 10 pm - I hadnt made it to the gym but wanted to get my exercise in for the day, after talking with my work out buddy we decided that we would go for a walk around my house - We start out walking down my street, we walk all the way to the other end and decide to turn back towards home.....this took about 15 minutes....we start walking back home after reaching the end - when we notice a car coming towards us...a completely normal event since we were walking down the street, but the lights on this car are bright and the car is going awfully slowly, it get closer and slower - we realize it is a cop car. It gets to us and stops, and thats where it began,

Cop- Where are you girls coming from
Us- we just went for a walk
Cop- Where do you live
Me- I live at the other end of this street
Cop- What is your name
Me- Corrie
Cop- What is your address
Me- 29
Cop- Someone called you in as suspicious, you're ok to go
Me- too shocked for words

Oh yes people -- apparently two girls walking down the street with water bottles in their hands is a suspicious act....... I'm going to the gym from now on!!

    Annoying yes but isn't that better than having a real creep walking on your street and no one taking the time to report it or have it checked out? Especially if you are out at night it is nice to know the cops are around!

    What's more suspicious is that you have neighbors that have nothing better to do than stare out their window and watch what other people do! OMG! lol

    Wow - I got a gun pointed at me once when i worked in a store and it took the police over an hour to respond to the panic button!
    I'm slightly impressed with the speed of their response. Must be a nice neighbourhood :smile:

    I agree with jenny, I'd be out there at 3 am walking - is this America or not?

    At least you know one of your neighbors is on the lookout and It takes less than 15 mins for the po-po to respond to suspicious person reports!

    Yeah at least someone noticed "weird" behavior! Too bad walking down the street is weird though! LOL Way to go on going for a walk with your friend. I love quality time like that! :)

    I love it when cops ask questions that they know they don't have justification for. So irritating.

    I was in our apartment pool one time and 2 cops walked in and started asking me all kinds of questions. They had no justification... it was goofy.
    Them
    > Me
    "Why are you in here?" - Just going for a swim....
    "Do you live here?" - Yes, but is that relevant?
    "Whats your apartment number?" - Why do you want to know? Have I done something wrong?
    "Why aren't you cooperating?" - Because you have no justification to harass me...


    lol.... I asked if I did anything wrong and why they were grilling me, and why they wanted to know so much.

    Don't get me wrong, I am all in support of Police, and think you should cooperate when possible... but what the hell.
