exciter1 Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 I live in a township also that relies on the county's sheriff's office for law enforcement. I'm actually just outside city limits. Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 Why can't somebody put a small box in there with a few cables hanging out and a countdown timer duck-taped to the box. They'll soon get rid of it! Quote

I'm actually just outside city limits. I live in a county island in the middle of a city so we have to pay for Fire coverage and wait for the Sherriff's office if there's a problem instead of the city police and fire that would respond just across the street. You may have heard of our Sherriff, Joe Arpaio. 1 hour ago, TabbyBoy said: Why can't somebody put a small box in there with a few cables hanging out and a countdown timer duck-taped to the box.

labfreak7 Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 I guess it makes sense for smaller communities to have a sheriff as opposed to a bigger police department. Just sounds so Hollywood cliche. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted July 12, 2016 Author Posted July 12, 2016 There are a few cities here in San Diego County that don't have a police force at all - they contract with the county sheriff. I guess I find it funny that everyone finds it funny. So update: Since I called FedEx yesterday they were happy to call me today to let me know what happens.The truck's engine seized up. They couldn't get it out of park, so they parked it there. FedEx apologized that the knew about it being there since Friday and didn't send a tow truck out sooner. I'd hate to be waiting for those packages. Quote
dcdfan Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Yeah, still seems strange that the driver didn't think it would be a good idea to lock up the truck with everyone's stuff inside. I guess he didn't need to worry about it since it wasn't his stuff... 1 Quote
