Police officers in Moore Oklahoma received a phone call from a young toddler named Bennett used a cellphone that belongs to his relatives with permission when he accidentally called 911 to request to have doughnuts delivered to his home.
Police officers answered the request from the toddler whose age was not released by coming to his home on Thursday February 27 as a goodwill gesture due to the age of the child since in real life if anyone of us make crank calls to the police, we would be in trouble with the authorities.

@Deepizzaguy but of course there should be an adult supervising the toddler but the police are kind-hearted for understanding

I know what you mean since the police understood that Bennett is a child.

It is heartwarming that the officers responded with kindness instead of treating it as a serious issue. There are few instances which had turned hilarious as well. I often wondered how toddlers are able to randomly dial the 911. Rather than reprimanding the family, the police chose to make it a positive experience. This approach definitely helps in building trust between the community and law enforcement. In most cases, prank calls to 911 can result in consequences, but the officers showed good judgment given the child’s age. Their visit is a good example of community policing and fostering goodwill. It’s nice to see officers engaging with the public in a way that promotes a friendly relationship. Thanks for sharing as usual.

It was an error that Bennett made calling 911 by accident since he did not know that the cellphone could dial 911 for real.
