The town’s 4th of July celebrations were just getting underway, with a large slip’n slide headlining one neighborhood block party. One resident, who clearly wasn’t in the mood for fun, called the cops to shut it all down, citing concerns that the slip’n slide was blocking traffic and lodging a noise complaint. When the cops arrived, it was immediately clear that everything was actually in order, so they did what any sane person would do – they jumped on and went for a slide.

“When the female officer asked for a garbage bag, we almost didn’t believe it. But she took off her radio and went for it,” resident Katlen Joyce Smith told ABC News about senior officer Carrie Lee, who responded at the scene with officer Joe Jones. One of the local kids fetched a large raft for Jones, who couldn’t fit into a garbage bag, and he dove in just the same. “They had such good energy. All the kids were loving it,” said Travis Eagledove, another resident.

The fun-loving cops have now gone viral across multiple news outlets and social media sites. Scroll down to see the hilarious story unfold!
