I resent the implication that just because I was questioned by the police I was doing something wrong. Everyone on the floors above an below the flat where the suspicious death occurred was questioned. I never knew the people involved and knew nothing about the case.

Why am I being labelled as doing something wrong, which is what the OP implies.

I had to go to a police station at 10pm cos my friends phone had been knicked and was used in a fraud case. I was in the kitchen with her when the burgular entered so I had to give a statement. Exciting stuff.

Urm... my friend was arrested and kept in a cell overnight for peeing on Tesco!

Once we were drunk in the street and I hadn't my ID and cops were coming and questioned us about what we were doing and how old we were. We really thought we were going to go to the police office. Fortunatly we talked properly lol

was arrested when I was 15 for assault! never got to court as it was not really an assault more a fight between 2 teenage girls that got out of hand.

I have been questioned on several occasions, most recently when my husband was attacked.

I agree with Sticks, maybe the opening post could be worded differently to reflect that not everyone who is questioned by police is a guilty person.

About 4 years ago I was coming home from a club. It was about 3am. As I got close to my flat I could see that a shop on the other side of the road was well ablaze. I sat down on a wall near by to watch what was going on. A copper came up to ask what i had seen, so I pointed out I had just got there. We chatted for a bit and he took my name and address "just as a procedure" Anyway, I went home and to bed.

At 4:30am I woke up to a loud banging on the door. I got up and answered the door. Stood there were 4 coppers. 2 male, 2 female. They pretty much invited themselves in. They then start asking me my movements for the entire night. Where had I been, who with and for how long. I asked them what it was about but they would not tell me. So there I am sat in my lounge just in my pants being questioned about something, but not knowing what.

I ask if i can get dressed and they say yes. A female copper follows me to my bedroom and as i pick up some clothes she asks me if they were the ones i had been wearing that night. When i say yes she takes them off me saying they could be evidence so i can't have them. Now I am ******** it. I now start demanding to know what this is about. Has there been an assault, murder, rape and they think I did it?

At this point one of the coppers starts to read me my rights but is stopped by another one. I demand that he carries on as then they will have to tell me why they are arresting me. He won't, but instead starts going on about my Hi-Fi and how it looks "very expensive." I point out that's because it is, I let him know the value of around Ł5000 and tell him I worked hard for it and I have receipts before he makes any more comments.

Anyway, after about 40 mins they get a call on the radio saying i have been found on the CCTV and i am in the clear. As they start to go I as again ask what it was about. It turns out they thought I had started the fire. No apologies from them as they left.

The worst bit was not knowing what they thought I had done.

Did they still take your clothes?

[supernoodles!]

once when i was about 12 i was sitting on the top of a park bench instead of sitting on the seat and a policeman told me to get down and i said there is no law saying you must sit on a park bench in a certain manner and he told me there wasin the end i got down
hardcore rebel i am lol
oh and once me and my bf were arguing outside a pub and this copper came over to stick his nose in but apart from that nothing lol.

"Did they still take your clothes?"

No, they just got the radio call and left. They would have had to arrest me to take anything.

I was arrested for stealing a packet of Hob Nobs from Somerfield in 1985, and spent 12 years in prison. Suffice to say, on my release in 1997 i have learnt my lesson, and have never stolen anything ever again. Crime does not pay.
