So glad your police department responded in such a caring way & glad he will be confronting her about the way she handled your call.

Wow, our 911 here gets all sorts of calls....I even called them at 1am because I was herding a cow on the highway to make sure it didn't get hit or cause an accident. They sent out the sheriff immediately to help get the cow back into the field.

Luckily I have our head sheriff's cell phone # though have only called him a couple of times.

One night the headlights on my truck were on at 3am. Scared me as I hadn't driven my truck for 3 days. Called 911 to have the sheriff come & check out if someone was messing around my truck (had break-ins in the unfinished farm house next door). Didn't want to go out alone. Duh, think my dog pressed my emergency door popper which was why the lights stayed on so long because we didnt find any signs of footprints or fingerprints in the dew. Felt stupid when I later realized what had really happened.

I have been first on the scene of many accidents here. So thankful for cell phones to call in emergencies like that.

My farm area was really quiet but a friend has neighbors who set off huge fireworks & scared her horses & they ran down to the river. She initially had no idea where they went. Horses get spooked & break through fences. This is also a horrible holiday for horses & here they aren't illegal.....sure wish they were except for displays in the parks.

No, 911 isn't just for life or death....it's for any emergencies.
