What do you call 12 police officers stuck in an elevator? Internet gold

When the brothers in blue need rescuing, who do they call? The fire department, of course.

A dozen police officers were trapped in a stalled elevator inside a Kansas City, Missouri, police academy on Wednesday. The academy staff reached out to the Kansas City Fire Department, who were quick to send a rescue crew to the aid of their colleagues, according to CNN affiliate WDAF.

But before they pulled the cops out of the elevator, the fire crew couldn't resist snapping a photo.

The snapshot, showing a smiling firefighter giving a thumbs-up before an elevator car full of sheepish-looking police, was posted on Twitter by St. Louis Fire Department Capt. Gregg Favre.
