Law roundup: Dispatcher isn’t in need of saving

A woman reportedly called 911 to quote scripture to a dispatcher who abandoned the call to answer multiple emergency calls coming in.

Dispatch had already answered several 911 hangups throughout the day including one where a woman said, “They do not value you.” No one answered dispatch’s multiple calls to see if emergency help was needed.

Dispatch called back a phone number linked to an abandoned phone call and a man answered who purportedly thought it was “weird” where a motorcycle was parked on the road, saying it “just didn’t look right.” The suspiciously parked motorcycle was gone by the time officers arrived.
