Have You Two Met?

Police have a funny way of talking sometimes - I particularly like the description I heard yesterday from a sheriff on Anderson Coooper of the deadly end to the hostage standoff in Florida yesterday: "It was at this point that the sniper made contact with the driver." I guess that's one way to "make contact" alright, though not likely to lead to any follow-ups or even an acknowledgement. Congratulations to the sniper, though, for not missing his contact or accidentally contacting the hostage.
