What follows below was by far the greatest conversation overheard on the scanner during last night’s tornado warning. (We’re fine, by the way)
Dispatcher: We’ve got a report of a disturbance at Clinton and Adams. A homeless man is running down the street–shirtless–drinking heavily, and shouting, “The world is ending, the world is coming to an end!”
Police Officer: He might be right!
Dispatcher: Well, just follow him. He’s going to the end of the world. Apparently.
Police Officer: Great. I think I’m going with him.
I love it!
