I wonder if his folks would have called the cops had they known?
Many people call the cops before knowing what it is they are calling about.
One time I had this little pile of leaves burning at a rental unit of mine after doing the yard work. So I'm standing there next to it with my rake when I hear all hell break loose- sirens coming from every direction. Hey... they're stopping at my property! Then about a dozen volunteer fireman come sprinting up to me and my widdle pile of leaves. Some dope called them when they saw that little bit of smoke wafting over/through the fence. NO, don't peek around the fence first to see what the hell is going on- call the Fire Department STAT!!!
