They left a number for the police dept. I didn’t write it down, but I figure I could have found the number if I needed it. But, still, I think it could be a lot better. I think a website linked up for followup info would be perfect!

it’s an interesting strategy.
i wonder how often people are like “oh yeah! that’s this guy here who i just gave a cup of tea, um… *69! *69! crap! what’s the callback number for reverse 911?!”

or did it like beep or something and let you leave a message if you knew anything? that could be fun, except for all the “LEAVE ME ALONE IT’S 11 AT NIGHT GO DO YOUR JOB” messages. i can understand why cops eat all those donuts.
