Hi 999: My Bunny's Got Wrong Ears

A woman dialled 999 to report that her rabbit had the wrong ears, it has emerged.


It is not known what happened to the bunny after the call

After buying the bunny, the woman found that its ears were not floppy as promised on the newspaper advert.

She called the emergency number to complain about the imperfect pet.

Amongst other nuisance calls revealed by the Central Scotland Police
based in Stirling were two people who dialled 999 after being splashed
by cars in wet weather.

When told it was inappropriate to use the number for the soaking, one woman verbally abused the call handler.

Another caller asked for the postcode of Grangemouth police station.

The police have condemned the calls as 'unbelievable and frivolous'
and said they were putting at risk the police's ability to respond to
life-or-death emergencies.

Chief Inspector Alan Stewart, of the force communications and
control centre, said: "It is unbelievable that anyone should phone 999
to report being soaked by a passing car, ask for a postcode or report
that the item bought from a newspaper advert was not as described."

"These are examples of how people clearly do not think when they pick up the phone and dial this number.

"Whilst officers and staff are dealing with these frivolous matters
that a member of the public has deemed so serious as to call 999, they
are not dealing with genuine emergency calls.

"This should serve as a reminder that the 999 system is for real
emergencies only, in such circumstances life can be at stake and as
swift and efficient a response as possible is required to ensure public
safety.

"Nuisance calls to the 999 system put that response at risk."

Lol amazing. . But do you kno that these ppl aint not thinkin clearly but truly think the police can help them with any prob? It's a kinda psychological belief. .
