if a person misuses the 999 or 911 service, should the be imprisoned ?

Hello all,
I was just wondering what people thought about the abuse of the emergency helplines.
I recently read an article about a man in Manchester UK who left his expensive jacket behind him on the bus and rang the Police to help in the recovery.
Thanks

That is pretty ridiculous but I think that the prisons are full enough with murderers and such to waste space in them with idiots like him. I do think he should be heavily fined and made to do community service. I think he should have to pay for any police time if the police were dispatched for him.

That is enjoying life at the expense of State Authorities who are performing important duties.
