Real 911 calls.....

MY husband works at the EMS side of the call center in our town.
Some of the calls I have heard visiting him at work.....
MY air conditioner broke.....uuuuhhh do you need an ambulance?
.

"Caller: I was running from the police."

LOL! It makes you wonder how these people survive in the wild!

Remember the show "rescue 9-1-1"? The one where the kid calls on a cordless phone because his tongue is stuck to the inside of the fridge?

Goodness - that's scary that they didn't respond to that appropriately. I used to work as a dispatcher (911 + all law enforcement areas because we are a small area) and it was our protocol to send law enforcement to EVERY 911 call even if we think it's a prank.

It's a real 911 call...not so funny...A five year old boy called 911, told dispatcher that mommy wasn't breathing-dispatcher told the poor kid to stop playing with the phone, and to put adult on the line-no one dispatched
Three hours later-he calls back repeats his story, and a DIFFRENT DISPATCHER still won't believe the poor kid. Threatens to send the cops out if he doesn't stop playing on the phone. An hour later the police arrive(sure it was sent out as non-emergency)
Mom is dead on the floor-heart problems...
The dispatchers were suspended and after an investigation now face a year in prison

This happened about 10 years ago in South Carolina. Nurse was going to meet her hubby for lunch, he didn't show, she goes to the ATM for money. Punk comes up to rob her.

Cops make the scene, the nurse has dislocated the punk's shoulder, broken his arm, and is slamming his face into the ATM, punk is screaming for the cops to save him. They showed the "dash cam" and you can hear the cop trying to tell the nurse to stop while laughing his head off.

Lesson: never get between a hungry nurse and her food.
