The Mount Pleasant Police Department in Wisconsin recently received an unusual 911 call. A 4-year-old boy dialed the number, upset with his mom.
The boy told the police that his “mom was being bad” and should be sent to jail. Officers took the call seriously and responded to the scene. When they arrived, the boy explained that his mom had eaten his ice cream. However, he quickly changed his mind, saying he no longer wanted her punished—he just needed a new ice cream.
The unexpected situation amused the officers, and the next day, they returned to visit the boy. The story quickly went viral, amusing online users and winning their hearts. Many pointed out that while the call was playful, the boy knew how to ask for help—something that could be valuable in the future.
