Dad Fumes as Police Snub Urgent 999 Call Over Daughter’s Threat
A furious dad has slammed police for ignoring his desperate 999 call about a violent threat aimed at his daughter and her car. Instead of rushing to the scene, officers reportedly chastised him for ringing emergency services.
‘Madman Threatening My Daughter’
Peter Audley says he dialled 999 on Friday after being warned of a “madman” threatening to attack his daughter and wreck her vehicle. Instead of stepping in, berkshire999.co.uk/topic/kent-police/" title="Kent Police" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">Kent Police allegedly dismissed his concerns and lectured him for using the emergency line.
“Oh they do come out then. I rang them Friday for what I considered something urgent. They did nothing except to tell me off for ringing 999. I got a text today to say they tried to ring me though there is no missed call on my phone and the officer they were going to send is on holiday!”
