I Got Arrested

Posted in Stories by MattyMoo on 4 November 2022

OK so it’s late on a Saturday and I’m walking home. Well when I say walking, I mean staggering. I’ve just been at a fancy dress party where I was dressed as Michael Myers from Halloween. I had really gone to town and covered my white t-shirt in blood from the butcher and torn up my clothes carrying a plastic knife. At this late stage the mask had fallen off BUT I was still staying true to character and hanging onto that blood soaked plastic dagger! Just then, 3 Police cars, lights flashing and sirens screaming go flying past me and I think ‘oooops, someone’s in trouble!’. Suddenly they all screech to a halt, spin round in the road, scream my way and end up a foot in front of me! Turns out, it was ME who was in trouble! I was ‘disarmed’ and bundled into the back of a car. Long story short, all charges were dropped when they realised I was just a drunken idiot in a costume! This was the 90’s so no legal action was taken, we just all had a good laugh about it and I got an awesome story to tell!
