Guest talks too much, German woman calls police

Tue Jul 8, 6:44 AM

BERLIN (AFP) - A desperate German woman finally called emergency

services to rescue her after a friend visited her and talked for 30

hours straight, authorities said Tuesday.

A police spokesman in the western city of Speyer confirmed reports

about the case, in which the guest rambled on about personal problems

and became increasingly intoxicated until the 48-year-old dialled the

emergency hotline.

" After an unbelievable 30 hours and failed attempts to encourage the

guest to leave last Saturday, the woman did not know what else to do

but to call an ambulance, " the police said.

When the paramedics refused to carry the guest out of the apartment,

the woman called the police, who picked up the friend and drove her

home.

The spokesman said the guest would face no criminal charges.
