Not 999 Yorkshire: Police slam caller who rang 999 to moan at no cheese on his pizza
Police call handlers were baffled after a Yorkshire man called 999 to say a takeaway had forgotten the cheese on his pizza.
West Yorkshire Police released audio from the call as part of their #Not999 series on Twitter.
“They won’t give us a refund or anything”, the man said.
"My girlfriend is sat here starving."
In response, the call handler said: “You do realise you have called 999?
"This is not an emergency police matter.”
