Scared the Crap Out of Me

Thurs night at about 1:15am, I am woken up by a knocking noise. Sounded like someone either knocking on the wall in the hallway of my apartment building or someone maybe falling down the stairs which run along my bathroom wall. Then someone bangs on my door a couple times but when I look out the peephole no one is there. I started to freak out. It wasnt normal knock on someone's door kind of noise either. So I went out to the living room so I can peer thru my blinds and before I can even get to the blinds I notice someone is shining a light into my window. I really started to freak out so I called 911 for the first time in my life. The operator was really nice and took my information and then went to see about dispatching someone.

Meanwhile the banging keeps happening every few mins or so I keep looking out the peephole and no one is there. The operator comes back and says that its the police outside my door. She said she would stay on the line with me as I opened the door and sure enough 2 officers are outside my door and I tell them 'Y'all scared the crap out of me!' They said that they received a call for my address (and apt #) and I told them that it wasnt me, I was dead asleep until I heard the pounding at the door. So they took my name and number and turns out the number they said that called them was a totally different number than mine.

Needless to say I had a hard time getting back to sleep and didnt sleep well at all.
