And the cop says to him ‘Can I see your license please, sir?’ ‘I don’t have it’ the guy says ‘They took it off me last time’
‘Well can I see your insurance details then?’ ‘Look, technically this isn’t my car. But I can show you insurance, it’s in the glove compartment. I saw it when I was putting the gun away.’
The cop steps back and says ‘Sorry, did you say gun?’ The guy nods and says ‘Fair play to the guy, he did put up a fight but I just wasn’t in the mood’
‘So you’re telling me there’s a body out there on the road?’ asks the cop. ‘No, no. I put him in the boot’ So the cop radios his sergeant who’s trained in these situations. Within minutes there’s armed police everywhere. The sergeant approaches the car.
‘Can I see your license please, sir?’ he asks, trying to keep the situation calm. ‘Certainly, here you go’ Full and clean license. ‘Can I also see your insurance, please?’ The guy reaches into the glove compartment and calmly hands over his details, again all present and correct. ‘Do you mind if I have a look in the glove compartment, sir?’ No gun. ‘Could you open the boot for me as well, please?’ No body, bloodstains, nothing.
‘I don’t understand this. My officer told me that you had no license, were driving a stolen car, were in possesion of a firearm which you used for murder and you had a dead body in the boot’
‘What?!’ says the guy ‘Next he’ll be telling you that I was speeding as well.’
