Boy calls 911 because he wants a Happy Meal

We all know how intense food cravings can be. Police in Mesa, Arizona say five-year-old Charlie called 9-1-1 on Sunday (October 27th) and said, "Hi, is this McDonald's?" A dispatcher responded back with, "No, this is the Mesa Police Department. Do you have an emergency?" Charlie answered with, "Can I get one Mc-Happy Meal?" and then quickly hung up. Police did a follow-up call and talked to Charlie's dad, who ensured them there was no emergency. Due to protocol, an officer had to swing by their house for a wellness check, and he brought Charlie his Happy Meal. The officer also had a chat with Charlie about when it's appropriate to call 9-1-1.
