One slow Sunday evening, a police officer is called to the scene of a domestic. Neighbours have reported loud shouting and sounds of fighting. After no-one opens the door, the officer and the back-up that has arrived, use force to gain entry. After a minute or so without any updates, the dispatcher requests a sit-rep. The first responder replies that they are standing in the living room at the entry to the kitchen, where they can see a man crying and cowering in the corner. He appears to be bleeding from a recently sustained head wound. Standing over him, is an irate woman in a dressing gown wielding a rolling pin. She is screaming at the officers that she had just mopped the kitchen floor and is tired of her husband wading in before the floor has dried. ‘Okay,’ the dispatcher asks impatiently, ‘so are you planning to make the arrest already?’ ‘10-4,’ the officer replies, ‘Just waiting for the floor to dry’.
