MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Accidentally setting off the burglar alarm at a Memphis home or business will now cost big bucks.
The Memphis City Council passed a law to charge residents if police keep responding to false alarms at their home or business.
After 5 false alarms there is a $25 charge.
After 7 false alarms, the cops won't come at all, and your name will go on a "do not respond" list until you attend a class to have it removed.
