beverly hills cop

on sunday sarah got a bunch of people from the westside service, which meets at beverly hills high school, to go to cpk for lunch. joel, the bhhs representaive that does lights for us, agreed to join us. we all got there first and we were ordering our food and jeremy saw joel through the window walking toward cpk. we thought oh good he is almost here. then he saw him walking away. we saw a big commotion in the street and police cars with their lights flashing but there was a big pillar blocking our view of what was actually happening. by the time joel actually arrived, we had all started eating already. but boy did he have a story.

so he was walking by starbucks and these two men were yelling at each other about one guys (a french tourist) little dog sniffing another guys (regular old american) big dog and the big dog growling at the little dog. joel steps in and says why dont we just calm down no harm no foul etc and the frenchman starts yelling at him and then follows joel down the street cursing at him loudly and in a very cliched manner (someone should tell him that "f***" is not the only curse word in the english language... cmon get creative...) and in a strong french accent and then he spit on joel. joel very calmly told him that was assault and he was calling the police... pulls out his cell phone and dials 911. the frenchmans girlfriend also spits at joel but misses. they take off and cut through chipotle to the back alley. the police come take his statement and start looking for the dude.

meanwhile joel comes, orders, starts to eat and relay the story. the beverly hills cop comes into cpk and tells joel that they have a guy in custody and want him to come identify him. so he leaves and does that. apparently when the guy went into the alley he took his shirt off (to avoid drawing attention - which completely backfired/as a disguise) and people dont do that in beverly hills and thats how they found him. so they took him and booked him and he has a court date in a couple of weeks. if he doesnt show up (which he prolly wont since i imagine he will be safely back in france) his priveleges of coming into the united states will be revoked and if he ever goes through customs trying to enter the country he will be immediately arrested.

becasue a big dog growled at his little dog. talk about needing to just relax.

i had no idea the french were soooo uptight.
