did i really just get interrogated by a...
Police officer: Excuse me, were you the cashier on duty during the incident about an hour ago?
Me (mopping the cafeteria floor): Oh yeah. Ha ha. The "incident."
Officer: Can you tell me what happened?
Me: A group of boys stood up, shouted "What the f*** is going on?!", scattered, and started fake shooting at each other. They were "shooting" and rolling and crouching and diving and ducking and "getting hit" until they all "died." Then they all got up and went away. The whole thing lasted a minute and a half tops.
Officer: What was your reaction?
Me: I thought it was kind of funny.
Officer: What about other people?
Me: There were about five people in line, and they all seemed to enjoy it while I was ringing them up.
Officer: Was anyone scared?
Me: No.
Officer: Do you think anyone might have feared for their lives?
Me: No.
Officer: Could anyone have mistaken it for an actual shooting?
Me: Ha ha. No.
Officer: Thanks for your time.
********** Four hours later **************
Me (reading "community update" email): Did they seriously take seven people into custody? Ridiculous.
