It is not uncommon for police officials to receive a number of emergency calls in a day seeking help for bizarre problems. But, this one call on police emergency number of Lagayette Indiana Police is winning hearts online.
It was a routine day for the dispatcher, Antonia Bundy, until she got a call from an unidentified boy in Indiana seeking help for his 'maths problem'. What is drawing attention online is Bundy's response to the boy after the conversation between the two was shared by the official Twitter handle of Lafayette Indiana Police.
The department shared the voice clip of the conversion but they clarified that the emergency telephone number should not be used for "homework help". Bundy said that her conversation with the boy was a "nice break" from the usual busy day. "It kind of takes the pressure off of it a little bit. Not too much, but just a little bit to be able to relax to take a step back and truly figure out what he needed and truly spend time with him and assist him in the best way I could," Indian Express quoted CBS news reports.
The tweet has since gone viral with over 1,200 likes and many praising Bundy for her response to the boy's problem. "911 is the center of all emergencies. The Lafayette Indiana Police tweeted: 'Our dispatchers never know what the next call might be.They train for many emergency situations, homework help is not one they plan for. We don't recommend 911 for homework help but this dispatcher helped a young boy out and brightened his day'.
One Twitter user responded to the tweet and wrote: 'This dispatcher clearly understands that it may not be an emergency to us but it is to somebody. Great job helping this very stressed young man in his time of need'.
