1. Call police

2. She is probably lost and / or drunk. Just call the police. That’s the appropriate thing to do.

3. Ummm… there are candy canes in the yard. Did she know the family? People don’t ring doorbells at that hour unless they know whose house it is or there is an emergency. If it was an emergency, then yes, call the police!

4. I would ask her on the door bell/intercom what’s going on. I would definitely not open the door, but I’d listen to what she needs, and probably tell her I’ll call for help. I guess that would be calling 911.

5. Call the Police , does anyone have an ounce of common sense anymore ?

6. What? This is definitely wierd!!! I would call the police. If she really needs help they will help her. If she doesn’t, and she’s acting, then you just saved yourself from a SITUATION!!!

7. I would take the opportunity to be m’gayer her and be zoche to see many generations of Talmidei Chachamim v’Chachamos.

   THEN, I would call the police: To help out at her grandchildren’ chasuna at Cedar Palace. Mazal Tov!

8. I would ask if she knows how to clean and offer her a job

9. chances are, i would have slept through it but if i was still up i probably would have called the cops, you might as well, thats their job, to take care of all the weird stuff that goes on at night…

10. She’s crying and asking for help in Spanish you can clearly hear it and understand her if your bilingual

    • Can you translate it? I agree she legitimately sounds like she’s crying. And has marks all over her back. Police should have been called to assist her. I hope she’s okay.

11. I remember when I was 17 years old, coming home from the seder on Pesach in Cleveland Heights, about 2 am. Some teenagers started following me in their car. I lost them, and knocked on the closest door I could. An old sickly man let me in his house, and called the police for me. He told me about his life and deceased wife as we waited for the police to come. Nicest guy. I always wondered why he let me in as a strange teenager at 2am though.

12. Pretty sure she’s saying “ayudar”- help. She doesn’t look drunk to me, and she doesn’t seem afraid that someone is chasing her. Maybe she got kicked out of her house- it was freezing last night. I would call the police to help her

13. Poor lady. I feel terrible for her. I would have wanted to open the door but I hope I would have had the sense to call police instead. I hope she’s okay.

14. She seems to be genuinely pleading for help. This happened Friday morning, right after Thanksgiving. Her partner very likely was intoxicated and either locked her out, beat her (she has marks on her back), or both. My bigger question is, whose door was she knocking on? Does a family member/ friend/ neighbor live there, or was it a random person? That would clarify things.
    Either way, I would’ve spoken to her through the bell and called the police.
    I hope she’s okay…

15. Similar happened to us, 50+ years ago, at our apartment door. We called the police
