Tell What Happened

The policeman arrived at the scene of an accident to find that a car had struck a telephone pole. Searching for witnesses, he discovered a pale, nervous young man in work clothes who claimed he was an eyewitness. "Exactly where were you at the time of the accident?" inquired the officer. "Mister," exclaimed the telephone lineman, "I was at the top of the pole!"

Part of the Service

Polceman: "I'm afraid that I'm going to have to lock you up for the night."
Man: "What's the charge?"
Polceman: "Oh, there's no charge. It's all part of the service."

Material Witness

I witnessed a robbery in a fabric factory and immediately called the police. They caught the culprit and held me as a material witness.
