Have you ever had to call or felt the need to call the Popo/Fire/Ambulance?

I don't mean call them to alert them of some drunk you saw on the road but like emergency call...

I just called them, lucky it was a misunderstanding...

What happened was I'm staying at step mum/dad's house and they're away in South Africa at the moment. Therefore there is not meant to be any guests coming around or anyone visiting. I saw this random old dude walking around outside like an hour before I called the police with the dogs barking at him but then he seemed to leave. Then I wake up like an hour later and here 2 guys banging around in the house and a few draws open. So I'm laying there thinking shower what do I do?!?! The house is rented so maybe it's workers or the estate agent? but reckon dad would've told me. I thought about going out there and seeing who they were...

But there was multiple of them and only 1 of me and I couldn't find a bat/hockey stick or anything close by. Therefore not wanting to confront them and die I called the popo by like oh shower there's 2 dudes (or more) in my house and IDK why they're here I'm not expecting anyone halp. Fortunately they were here in like 2 minutes and it did turn out to be 2 guys here doing some work on the house but thank flower I'm not dead.

Was I wrong to call the popo? Me was scared.

So, have you ever had to or felt the need to call popo/fireys/ambos?

Only once, we had the cops called on us because we were causing ruckus and the neighbours weren't happy with music volume from ours (respect 4 real slim shady pls).

Oh and another time when my mate flipped the shopping trolley that his gf was riding in and she went headfirst into the road.

Alcohol.

Only once, when I beat Grazz 5 - Zip at darts, and his eyes started glazing over

But i've had the cops called on me 3 times, my lads 18th, then his 21st, and my daughters 18th. The guy that calls the cops, is the neighbourhood froot-loop, so all's good

Have called them a few times.
Once we went out the front at night,this was while houses in our area were still being built.We saw a couple of guys in a ute pinching the hot water tank from a house down the road then they took off past us(didn't see us tho).The police of course were too late despite the fact they were at the house for awhile.

Then we were coming home from somewhere and one of the roads we use goes past a place called the Spectacles which has a little car park so people can go bush walking there.As we drove past,we observed some guys lighting a car on fire so called the cops.Happens a fair bit in this little car park as the road in not very busy.

I never said you are a fruit-loop, coco-pop maybe, but definitely not a fruit-loop mate

My wife was working nightshift and went to bed at 7am and an elderly neighbour rang her at 10 am and like most people that get a call in the middle of the night was incoherent on the phone and fell asleep mid conversation. The elderly neighbour thought there was something wrong and called an ambulance. My wife woke up with a lot of banging on the door and when she opened the door she was shocked to see an ambulance crew there asking if she was OK.

Ziplock

Called an ambo for one of my roommates friends who was passed out from drinking with his eyes open, but they were taking too long to get here so we picked him up and carried to to the hospital :P

Nails

Yeah I was surprised they rocked up in like 1-2 minutes. Pretty solid effort by them. If I was about to die they might have got me in the ambulance before I was fully dead.
