Police completely stunned after person calls 999 to say they're being followed by a cat
The Met has published time-wasting calls in a bid to get people to stop using up call-handlers' resources with pointless conversations.
A few years ago, the Met did a round up of some of the 2 million calls it received in a year and described some that did not need an emergency response.Coastguard finds multiple parts of destroyed Titanic sub after all five passengers die in 'catastrophic implosion' Among them were a report of out of date biscuits, an extra saveloy and chips and a request for the time.Ch Supt David Jackson, who was in charge of call handling for the Met, said: "Although these calls can be perceived as amusing, they are actually a huge waste of the Met’s resources.
"These hoax calls block the number from other members of the public who could be calling 999 in a real emergency, keeping people in danger waiting for longer and putting lives at risk."
