999 Calls on YouTube

CHICAGO, UNITED STATES - Avon and Somerset Police in the UK have taken a leap and published hoax 999 calls on YouTube. They claim to receive over 400 a year, blocking their phone lines for real emergencies. This effort of putting the recordings online is an attempt to show people what a complete waste of time hoax calls are.


It is great to see emergency services adopting the internet like this.

You can subscribe to their channel here, or have a listen to this selection of calls:

"There's a squirrel with no hazelnuts"



"To complain about very sore feet, due to no buses."



"An injured pigeon."



Great stuff. What hoax's have your team been tasked to?

Share   and spread D4H :-)
