So, here are a few of the "gems" that they lovely people of Dallas have called in to 9-1-1 recently. From yesterday... A woman called in to report that while she was at the Dallas Zoo with her church group her vehicle was broken into. After 20 whole minutes she called back to inquire why officers weren't there yet. When it was explained that calls are dispatched in order of priority and that this area has a high call load her response was as follows. "What am I supposed to do?!! It's beginning to get dark and there are a lot of black people out here!" Yep. That's what she said. A woman called in to report that her husband came home drunk and feeling a bit frisky. The woman, who was already asleep in bed with their toddler, refused his drunken advances. So, doing what any man would OBVIOUSLY do after his attempts at making sweet love are rebuffed, the man stood up on the bed and.......peed on his wife and child. From today... A woman from far North Dallas called in to report that her vehicle had been stolen from the Kroger near her house. Since she did not know her license plate or VIN she was told by the call taker that we couldn't dispatch police. (Without this information it is impossible for officers to place the vehicle on the regional and national databases as "stolen", therefore it's a wasted trip for the officers) She demanded to speak to a superviser. After talking to this woman for five minutes and figuring out that she lived three miles from the store I offered to have an officer take her home to get her info. (This is HIGHLY unorthodox because we don't run a damn taxi service...but being inconvenienced just doesn't suit the North Dallas crowd so it wasn't worth the headache) Before we could get officers en route to her, though, she called back to tell us that she finally took the time to walk around the parking lot and found her "stolen" Infiniti. A thirteen year old girl called to report that a fellow thirteen year old girl was threatening to send several other thirteen and fourteen year old girls to beat her up. Seems this little girl was attempting to woo the fourteen year old father of the other thirteen year old's unborn child. I literally could not make this stuff up if I tried.
