The tables turned when a Texas teenager
recently decided to stick it to the man when she saw a police car illegally
parked in her neighborhood and wound up with a reward for keeping a cop in
line. Annie James, a 14-year-old from Baytown, Tex., issued a handwritten 10$ parking ticket to Officer
Tommy King, whose patrol car was parked in a fire zone in the Bay Oaks
apartment complex. "He was parked on the side of the building and it was a
fire lane all the way around," Annie told KPRCD-TV. Not only did the
officer pay the fine but also gave Annie a $40 gift card to Toys R Us."Turns out we're both from Alabama and end
up in Texas," King said. "It's interesting ... I made a friend. A
lesson would be not to be shy or afraid of law enforcement. We're here to
help."
