It is not an emergency until someone gets hurt

Another example of how the police system do not work to protect the tax-paying citizens of this country. Five 111 calls?! Two calls is understandable. Perhaps the caller is a prankster. Three...maybe. Four - no way. But Five!

Thsi is not the first time the Police failed to respond to emergencies as we all know. We have the famous Irena Asher who disappeared at Piha because she was sent a taxi instead of a police car. We have that old fella who got beaten up outside a bar. Police did come to this one but never followed up on his investigation. Now this.

A note to all potential 111 callers: Read the new 111 call procedure and you will surely get a response.
