[QUOTE="jarhead983, post: 785530, member: 7129"] I would assume that there was no follow up on the false report based on the assumption that all they would claim was that 'they were sure that they saw a gun'. If I was an officer I would believe that it was a dead end and not waste my time on something I couldn't prove one way or the other. All he would know is that there was nothing in the car when he searched, but that doesn't mean I couldn't have had a toy gun that I threw away prior to him arriving on the scene. Without a gun he couldn't assume anything. With a gun, he can assume that the odds are in favor of the callers. Even if the odds of false reporting a vehicle with an actual gun is getting better by the day, at least by the # if CCL's being issued. I will admit, I was not angry but rather amused at the whole thing. I mean this false report cost me 30 minutes on the side of the road handcuffed. Plus another 25 minutes of being hauled into Stroud to get the cuffs off. But I was impressed by the brilliance of the kids, maybe there is some hope for the future. [/QUOTE]
