    Found out it was my new neighbor above us who called the cops.
    I have never been in the situation but middle of the day? I know that the $250 would come from somewhere......
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    If it's so old that the release is in the grill. Someone could have disco'd the battery. And what's up not working on Monday. Does that mean no tows on Sunday and Monday? Protect and serve.

    Be prepared to jump start it...if the horn is on for 2+ days, that's gonna be one dead battery.
    Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...

    better take a battery to get the truck unless they were nice enough to pull the fuse for you.

    Better than answer a call for assistance?

    I hate car alarms, especially those alarms that include the horn as part of it's annoying sounds. I don't even understand why people have them anymore. Any time I hear a car alarm going off in a parking lot, it isn't like everyone stops and looks to see if someone's car is getting jacked. 99% of the people just bitch that some jack-hole's alarm is going off. Just like a POS Harley with pipes so loud you can hear it 3 counties over.

    So it seems to me that the neighbor caused you $250 worth of trouble. Be a damn shame if he received the same consideration in some creative form or fashion. How much does a windshield cost?

    Perfect example of Dem logic, right there. "I caused a problem, but since someone else called me out on it I'm going to conveniently blame them and punish them for it."
    Unbelievable.

    OP, it sucks that the tow yard wouldn't wait for you. Did you try calling them before you drove out there to pay?
    It'd be nice if they worked with you on the charge, but I have a feeling they won't. It sucks.

    If I were in your shoes, I'd go and apologize to the neighbor that called the cops on you, and explain what happened. You may be able to make an ally out of him/her, in case something like that ever happens again. You'd put a human face onto an irritant, and make them realize that shit happens to nice people sometimes.
