Are Those Bones Human?

[MedicPrincess]

So, our wonderful, often times too easily exited decided they needed us to get out of line at KFC where we were for the third time yesterday. We were to be enroute for an agency assist, SO wanted us to check something out. No other info, our dispatch was attempting to obtain further. We get there and this poor Deputy who is probably still using Noxema Acne Wipes in hopes his pimples will clear up in time for the prom is just-a-waving us in. I swear I saw him even jumping up and down a little bit. He practically runs up to the ambulance when I put it in park and opened my partners door. Can we come look at something?

Umm, Sure. Whatcha got?

We trapse off to where he is walking and pointing. My partner walks up, shakes her head, picks up her radio and says "DOA."

The SO says... those are bones right.

Yep.

You could almost see him stop breathing. He says, But are they human.

Yep.

Are you sure.

With a straight face she looked right at him and said.. "Well, they are wearing underwear. So I'd say Yes."

Apparently one of our local "under the bridge residents" (read: homeless) had found a pile of boxes behind some buildings that he thought would make for a nice home. He began picking through and found "the body." Flagged down SO. Poor guy was probably another transient who had found a place to sleep last winter and ended up taking the forever nap.

Seriously, I LOVE our homeless population. Who else is going to call 911 because as our guy last night did, "Its hot outside" and he was sweaty.

Or

Because he "equilibrium is off" and it in no way could have anything to do with the "at least, probably more" 24 beers in 10 hours he admitted to because normally he can drink so much more, so SOMETHING must have gone "coo-coo for cocoa puffs" (his words, not mine) upstairs.

Job security at its finest.

Can you translate that into plain English please? I've read it several times and I just don't understand what you mean. Thanks.

Red cross donations of proper funeral clothing (burial attire for the homeless) for the cops to carry around in the trunks of their cars for just such an occasion. <shrug>
