Spiderman down
Sometimes I love my job. This morning we got dispatched for a possible pedestrian struck on a major highway. The text of the call read "male wearing full Spiderman costume on the side of the road." A later supplement to the call said, "advised he's laying in the grass, moving a bit. Looks injured." We responded along with a host of other units. My partner and I wondered why in the hell a guy would be dressed up in a costume, but we've seen stranger things, such as people legally changing their name to that of superheroes, so we didn't question it too much. Actually, in a sick, twisted way, we wanted to run a superhero. How awesome would it be to treat someone in a spandex outfit claiming to be Spiderman? A few minutes later, we were all put in service. "State police on scene. Says its a stuffed animal. Place all units in service." How do you confuse a stuffed animal and a man? And to go as far as to say he's moving a little, looks injured? Its hard to say if its a prank or if someone driving 75 mph really thought it was a guy. Only here. Well, then there was the guy a few years back who circumcised himself, although he was already circumcised. That was interesting. I need to start a journal or something.
