US woman calls 911 because she got the wrong Chinese food
Posted: June 16th, 2011 - 9:41am by Doug Powell
Police in Savannah, Georgia took to reminding residents today that they should only use 911 for emergencies.
Because apparently, calling and asking for officers to come to the Hong Kong restaurant on 
Largo Drive to tell those "idiots" that they shouldn't have gotten your order wrong does not an emergency make.
