If you've ever wondered what a day in the life of a cop is like, this Vancouver Police call list will give you the inside scoop. 

Deputy Chief Howard Chow tweeted out a snapshot of "some of the 50+ calls about to be assigned."

The tweet explained that they average about 730 calls a day. He said they had dealt with 650 calls in the last 24-hours from when he posted on Thursday, October 22.

The list includes everything from missing person reports to weapons and suspicious people. 

One woman reported her neighbour, who she thinks is a peeping Tom. Another person was hit by a car that took off from the scene. 

Several businesses called, including a bank that said someone was using drugs inside and refusing to leave, another was a doctor's office who has someone threatening to kill the staff. 

All and all, Vancouver sounds like a pretty frightening place from the looks of this list. 

Or, is this a look into what all police are dealing with across the country?
