Not my best stories but only a few I can talk about publicly.

I was working security at Halloween party a few years ago. Well the party gets way out of hand. There were only a limited number of tickets available, 200 or 250 but well over 2000 people show up. Most of these people are drunk from other parties or just getting off pub crawl buses so they decide to have their own party outside in the parking lot. I end up having to escort someone off the property, once I get outside the building I get jumped by his friends who are all dressed up as the cast of Sesame Street. I ended up pulling my baton on them and they run away. Police get called to break up the party. One officer I'm talking to puts on a call to dispatch to put a BOLO out on the cast of Sesame Street. I heard the dispatcher in a very confused voice say " Say again? Your looking for Big Bird and Elmo?". The officer then replied "I am also looking for Burt, Ernie, Oscar, Cookie Monster and the Count in relation to two counts of assault and criminal mischief!". The radio went quiet but you could see the other officers struggling to keep a straight face.

Another time I was working a special event where a lady at the bar turned out to be a prostitute. I was allowed to work plain clothed at the time so I set my phone to record video and waited for her to approach me. Once there was enough evidence we made the arrest. While waiting for the police to arrive to take custody, I was searching her purse where I found a badge and police issued ID from a neighboring police force. When I asked her about it she said nothing, totally refused to say another word. My mind was going crazy thinking I had just ruined a police sting. When the local LEO's arrive everything proceeds as normal. The lady gets charged and I get subpoenaed to court to testify. Turns out she was in fact a police officer and was "conducting her personal business" on the side. She ended up entering a plea deal for her sexual addiction.

Last one I can talk about. Working at a construction site one evening I come across a running vehicle parked around back. I approached with flashlight in hand to notice the vehicle rocking a bit. Well I was very bored so I figured I would have some fun so I turn my flashlight to the highest setting, 1200 lumens and light the car up as they had not noticed me yet.Turns out to be two very hairy men of middle eastern decent totally naked in the car. They are so scared neither of them move. Total deer in the headlights scenario. I asked them to get dressed and wait for the police as the site orders stated any trespassers were to be charged. Police arrive and charge both men with criminal trespassing, public indecent acts and public nudity ($287 and a court date). After the couple drove away one of the officers said there was a motel just down the road. They could have gone there for $80 a night but instead the BJ cost $574 and they would have to stand before a judge and explain it.
the next day when I went in for my shift the site supervisor had posted my incident report in the lunch room for all to read. Turns out there was a rather flamboyant drywaller from Quebec who just happened to drive the same vehicle. It wasn't the guy but he sure get ribbed over it.
