Gary ... our alarm doesn't turn on the lights, but otherwise works that way... when it goes off it dials the central office of the alarm company, and they try to contact us ... if they can't get us or one of our family members they dispatch the police ... once the police get to the house the central office can turn off the alarm ... the alarm has gone off on a couple of occasions and the police response time has been great ...

Steve ... if I'm not mistaken that happened around the time I was playing at Barbara's Restaurant in Coventry ...
