One of the joys of living in a small town (the last census measured the population at a robust 716) is reading the police ticker in the local (weekly) paper. This is a run down of all the calls police responded to in the last week, usually ranging from domestic disputes to petty robberies. Here's my favorite item from last week's police reports:
Responded to possible death complaint at 3219 Meadowview Lane.*
I just have to know...what is a "possible death complaint"? And what is the appropriate response to said complaint?

Is it when you ALMOST make a death compaint (i.e. I can't believe Aunt Mildred is gone!) but then think better of it?
This is hysterical. When we lived in a little town called Shrewsbury, the highlight of my week was when the weekly paper arrived so I could read the Police Log. You can only imagine how hilarious the complaints of a town of most retirees are.
