Air Dial? Teen Throwing Phone Calls 911
He probably couldn't have done this if he tried.
A 911 misdial came into the Port Washington Police Department, but this accidental call was a bit more unusual.
The call came in at 6:26 p.m. Friday, according to police reports. In following up, officers found a 17-year-old Port Washington boy in the 100 block of East Woodruff Street.
The boy told police was throwing his phone up in the air and catching it, and accidentally dialed 911 one of the times he caught it, the report said. There was no emergency.
