A Servers Life = Held Hostage! Have not posted one in awhile, but this is a must to add. So tonight I'm in Dupont, WA. trying to serve a John Doe. As I'm walking up the front window is open & I heard a person cough. I thought awesome, someone is definitely home, which was great because I had another file for Dupont that nobody was home. Anyways I'm walking up to the door. No door bell so knowing someone was home I did a light knock, no answer, so I knock a little harder, still no answer, but I definitely heard someone walking & talking near the door. So I knock a little harder & again I heard someone talking. With no answer I knock much harder this time & a guy opens the door & right away he is in my face & yelling at me for knocking hard. I ask if he is John Doe & he says no while still screaming at me at this point. I could practically see the steam coming off his face & I tried to leave & he gets in front of my pushing me with his body telling me I can't leave because he was going to call the cops because I had woke his kid & I was Tresspassing. At this point I was able to get around him but barely. As I was trying to get to my car he kept getting in front of me to try & block me. I told him he is holding me hostage & I was going to call the cops. I had still not been able to get to my car when a woman came out who I assume was his wife & she starts yelling at me as well saying I scared her. By now I was able to get to the door of my car, but he at first blocked me from getting in saying again that he wasn't going to allow me to leave, then he let me get in my car but was blocking me from leaving still. At this point I was able to call 911 & was telling them he was holding me hostage & not letting me leave. He again while I was on the line to 911 said I could not leave, then realized I really was talking with 911 & moved out of the way so I could leave. I pulled away, got down the road & continued to give my info to 911. They asked if I was hurt & if I still wanted them to come there. I told them I was going to leave because I know nothing will happen to him,but did request someone atleast go there & talk to him. Got off the line with them & a few minutes later a officer called me back asking what I wanted them to do. Again I stated the same thing & said If you find out that he was the person I was looking for, then to call me & I would come back & serve him. Never received a call back, so as I assumed they did nothing & he was not the person I was there for. Until my next adventure stay safe.
