People who have had to call the police on the neighbors', what was happening?
 
Had to do it once, because the people down below in the apartment were blasting their music that everything was shaking at MIDNIGHT! We think they put a tire in my parent's tire as retaliation.
 
Many many times over again. Not just in one house but again at the new house. We had the police arrested also after we called them. We or I had it bad over the years, even had to go to court.
 
I called the police last year when someone ripped the cable off my house that hooks up the cable to my house. Someone drove their truck down my street and it snagged the cable and ripped it off my house.

This is the second time that someone has ribbed that specific cable off my house since I've lived here.
 
I've never rung the police on my neighbours, but I did ring at the scene of a car accident once.

A car jumped a red and ploughed in to a delivery drivers van. The gentleman in the car made no effort to get out of his vehicle but the young man in the delivery van did get out and was staggering around. I sat him in my car whilst waiting for the police and ambulance, then checked on the other guy - who immediately lied to me and told me that the delivery driver had jumped the red. Which was shit because they were infront of me and if he jumped the red so did I (I didn't!).

I left my statement with the police and was actually contacted by the courts and asked to testify. The man in the car lied all the way to court, then lost.
 
I called the police since my neighbor's dog was crying all night long. But honestly nothing has happened.

The doggie still cries at night. Poor creature.
 
Once, I used to live in a flat above a couple who were always arguing, they just yelled and screamed at each other all the time. It never seemed very one sided, she was just as abusive and nasty as he was, you kind of got used to it after a few weeks and learned to tune it out.

One day though there was the sound of stuff smashing and breaking and thudding as well as the screaming and shouting. I called the police in case somebody was going to be seriously injured of killed.

I also moved out a week later, I don't need to deal with all of that.

so uhhh, were they looking for free cable or did you make them mad?
 
I think I'm a pretty understanding person when it comes to loud parties on Friday and Saturday, but if it goes past like 2 or 3 in the morning and they're outside practically shouting instead of talking with the music still blasting, I'll be "that person" because after asking them a few times before to keep it down and them assuring me that they will, they almost assuredly never do. So I figure asking them becomes a waste of time, and I just call the cops, because apparently, they'll listen if it's the cops.

I feel like this is acceptable maybe once or twice a year, but not as a regular thing at all

I had to call the police on the neighbors dog over the weekend because Animal Control is only open Monday thru Friday. At the time, I didn't know it was the neighbor's dog. But the police told them to keep it tied up in their front yard or put it in their fenced in back yard.

Reason being:

It was a German Shepard. It was at my car door when I got home and wouldn't let me out. It wouldn't go away either. The dog barked and growled at me. I cracked my door open and sprayed it in the face with Axe Body Spray It snorted and backed off.

Later it came back when I was checking the mail and growled, showed it's teeth, and barked. It proceeded to chase me across my lawn to my door. It sat at my front door for a while. I felt aggravated that it was even there.

I am glad the cops took care of it.
 
Per another question, I've always lived rural, in the country. We didn't have to call the cops. We DID however call DNR one time for our neighbors who were violating the law & clear cutting by the river. The law in Michigan is you can't do anything within 50'. They were scaring away all the wildlife & waterfowl.
