Dear PoPville

“DC 911 response”

By Prince Of Petworth
Published September 13, 2022 at 2:35PM

“Dear PoPville,

I just wanted to write in with my experience with DC 911 on Monday 12th at 3:40pm. I called 911 to report a man attempting to break into cars in broad daylight as I sat in my bay window he moved from car to car trying various doors of multiple cars.

I was met with an automated response telling me not to hang up and someone would be with me shortly. 3 minutes went by and the man was gone so I hung up. Thank goodness it wasn’t a real emergency of some kind.”
