When the St Petersburg firefighters received the 911 call that a man was bleeding from the face near the fire station, the boys were quick to jump into Rescue 5, open the doors and throw on the emergency lights, to attend the scene. But as they drove out they heard a “thump”. Whoopsie daisy, stop looking, they found the injured man…under their truck! Yep, they ran him over. The man was later identified as Ted Allen Lenox a homeless guy who had been laying on the pavement outside the garage doors. Obviously the 911 dispatcher didn’t give a very good description of the injured man’s location! Fail!

Dead I suppose?
Nope, but his face isn’t the only thing bleeding now!
Had a cop in San Diego run over a homeless guy at 3 in the morning, 60 mph on a city street and no siren. The cop’s lawyers claimed basic speed law. He won. Every speeding ticketed driver claimed that for over a year.
Heard an exchange between a judge and an female driver one time:
Judge: “Why were you going 50 in a 30 zone?”
Female: “Well, duh, yer honor; it’s a corvette.”
