Drunk man calls police about 250 grams of missing potatoes, demands…,LOOK

In a strange turn of events, police in Hardoi district, Uttar Pradesh, received an unusual distress call about the theft of 250 grams of potatoes. The incident took place just before Diwali when a man named Vijay Verma contacted the UP-112 helpline to report the missing potatoes and requested police intervention.

According to TOI, Vijay Verma, a resident of Mannapurwa, had set aside 250 grams of potatoes that he wanted to cook. When he returned after a brief moment, he discovered that the potatoes were gone, prompting him to contact the emergency hotline for a thorough investigation. When police arrived at Verma’s house, they found that the “theft” involved only 250 grams of potatoes.

The officers who responded to the call recorded a short five-second video of their conversation with Verma, who said firmly: “This is what needs to be investigated.” When asked if he had been drinking, Verma acknowledged that he had and said, “Yes, I work hard all day and have a small drink in the evening.” But this isn’t about alcohol; it’s about the missing potatoes.”

I think it’s worth 250 euros

The video showing Verma’s emphatic request for investigation soon went viral on social media. Viewer reactions varied widely; Some praised the police for their quick response, while others criticized the abuse of emergency services and emphasized that such trivial reports waste valuable resources.

In a separate bizarre incident in Singanapalle village, Andhra Pradesh, a video emerged showing a drunken truck driver narrowly avoiding a dangerous encounter with a python. Reports indicate that the driver had consumed a significant amount of alcohol after a long day at work. Too drunk to go home, he collapsed on a nearby platform and fell asleep.

Unaware of the danger, the driver was approached by a large python that emerged from the nearby forest and coiled around him. The undated video captures the python resting around the driver’s neck while he was unconscious in his drunken state. Concerned locals quickly came to his rescue and managed to free him from the snake’s grasp.

These unusual incidents have sparked mixed reactions among Internet users, who are both entertained and concerned about the impact of alcohol on judgment and consciousness. Many call for better public education to prevent unnecessary emergency calls and dangerous situations.
