..The release says police responded to a noise complaint in the 200 block of East Patrick Street shortly before 9:30 a.m. A complainant said the man living in the rear entrance of the apartment, Charles Akin Rempe, had been making a lot of noise for several hours.

Guess he didn't have a cell phone
Doesn't Hunting safety teach you to fire three shots when in need of assistance... I guess it could apply for fishing too.
Also - Its like that anecdote of the guy who calls the police to investigate 2 men in his backyard. He calls several times and they say there is no one in the area to assist him, and he would have to wait.
He calls the 911 operator back and says not to worry about it, he caught them trying to break in and shot them both.
Cops were at his house in less than 4 minutes.
