“I know he was like ‘I beg your pardon? No one has ever said that to me before.'”
A police officer came to a woman’s door, hoping to take a look at her doorbell camera footage. She told him “No thank you.”
Ring camera footage of the encounter was uploaded by TikTok user Hala (@halawedemboyz). In it, a police officer approaches a porch, holding an opened folder. After no one answers the door when he knocks on it and rings the doorbell, he starts to walk away. However, a woman, speaking through the doorbell camera, stops him in his tracks. “Yes?” a woman, who Hala identifies as her mother mother, asks.
“Yeah, hi,” the officer says, returning to the porch. “I’m Detective Bishop with Sunnyvale Police Department.” Before the detective says anything else, the woman cuts him off. “No thank you,” she tells him.
Hala revealed in the caption that her mom was “at work and couldn’t hear him i think she thought he was trying to raise money for something.”
Her response clearly catches the detective off guard. “What’s that?” he asks.
