Any call with no report..
Resident in apartment complex reported finding a dead child in the dumpster. Ended up being part of a very realistic Halloween decoration.
Got called as a negotiator to a guy on his apartment patio holding a gun to his head. It was the only suicidal subject I talked to as a negotiator where I really thought he was going to do it. I couldn’t get him to talk to me at all for a long time. He’d shout at me to stop talking and from time to time he would tilt his head to the side and really screw the barrel into his temple. When he would do that I was sure he was going to pull the trigger. Eventually he started talking a little bit and we were able to get him to surrender peacefully.
