Someone's singing confused police, so they kicked in a door


Police got a call Tuesday night that they thought involved domestic violence.

UPI reported that residents in an Amsterdam apartment thought someone was screaming in pain.

When police knocked on the door, they got no response, so they kicked in the door, leaving a hole in the bottom.

It turns out that the resident in the home was practicing opera singing, according to Time.

He had headphones on.

Amsterdam police shared the story and included a photo of the damage done on its Facebook page.

"In the end, the (police), the tipster and the resident had a real laugh about the incident," police said.
