How to report a Burglary in the UK

The following letter is from Tony Gladstone,

Going to bed last I noticed people in my garden shed stealing things.

I phoned the police but was told that no one was in the area to help. They said that they would send someone over as soon as possible.

I hung up. A minute later I called again. “Hello,” I said, “I called you a minute ago because there were people in my shed. You don’t have to hurry now because I’ve shot them”.

Within minutes there were half a dozen police cars in the area plus helicopters and an armed response unit. They caught the burglars red handed.

One f the officers said: “I thought that you said you had shot them” To which I replied “I thought you said that there was no one available”
