Heflin police join students in prank war

In Heflin, Alabama, a seasonal toilet paper prank escalated when Cleburne County High School students rolled not only homes but nearly every business and the police station. Police Chief Ross McGlaughn answered with a playful warning on social media and, with parental approval, led a multiagency, toilet paper armed response. He says the pranks keep kids out of other trouble, and local businesses now supply free rolls. Students even sell cleanup insurance through a Toilet Paper Rapid Response Team. The town, and its chief, are enjoying the lighthearted prank war.
