A swarm of police cars descended on an apartment building in Sydney, Australia, at 2:00 a.m. after multiple neighbors called to report a murder in progress. \u201cI\u2019m going to kill you, you\u2019re dead! Die! Die!\u201d a man in an apartment yelled, and then a woman screamed again and again as furniture was thrown around.<\/p>\n
But a spokesman from the department\u2019s Harbourside Local Area Command reported it wasn\u2019t a murder: when police knocked, the man who answered the door said he was alone, and denied having a girlfriend or wife \u2014 there was no screaming woman.<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah sorry that was me,\u201d he said. \u201cIt was a spider\u201d that sent him into fits, \u201ca really big one!!\u201d<\/p>\n
Officers reported that \u201cAfter a very long pause, some laughter and a quick look in the unit to make sure there was no injured party (apart from the spider), we left.\u201d [1]<\/p>\n
What may appear to be a trivial nuisance to some may seem life-or-death to others. Our fears are often irrational – we fear the little things but not some big things. The only one to truly fear is the one who holds our eternity in his hand – God alone.<\/p>\n
