Elderly Floridian Calls 911
An elderly woman in Florida called 911 to report a break-in at her car. She was frantic as she spoke with the dispatcher, exclaiming,
“They’ve stolen the stereo, the steering wheel, the brake pedal, and even the accelerator!”
Dispatcher’s Assurance
The dispatcher responded calmly, assuring her, “Stay calm. An officer is on the way.”
Officer’s Revelation
Moments later, the officer radioed in, saying,
“Disregard. She got in the back seat by mistake.”
This humorous twist highlights the importance of clear communication during emergencies while also showing how easily situations can be misinterpreted.
