Yes & it's a good thing they didn't chop down the front door with that wonderful fire axe they have. Cuts a door like butter.

Have had the police call me also. That's always a lovely phone call.

No, but I've been with the Sheriff's Dept. and called a realtor because we needed access to the property for a search on another parcel nextdoor.
