Cops Apologize After 911 Operator Refused to Send Help for Baby in Hot Car

A Michigan woman accidentally locked her keys and her infant daughter inside her minivan. “I grabbed a piece of asphalt and started banging, but it would not break,” Lacy Guyton said. She was with her grandmother, Mary Riley, who called 911. To their utter astonishment, the 911 operator in Waterford said she could not help. “My granddaughter just put her baby in the car and the car door locked and we can't get in it,” Riley told the dispatcher. “We don't unlock vehicles,” the operator responded. #InsideEdition

"we don't have the tools for that"

So you're gonna tell me that the fire department *don't* have axes?

[Ohgrowup]

That wasn’t a mistake, that was absolute negligence. How could they not come to the aid of a baby?!?!?

“Help my son is stuck in my burning house”
“Nah we cant do anything about that, maybe try turning on a hose? Yall be safe tho lol.”

Accidentally pocket dials 911 "WE HAVE TO CHECK" SENDS 5 CARS
Calls 911 begging to save baby
"SORRY WE DONT DO THAT"

[SuperLadyDanger]

Pretty sure as an EMT I've been on calls where we used all sorts of methods to get people out of cars. Once broke a window to save a dog in this same situation, I'd for damn sure do it for an infant!!

“Help my house is getting robbed and my child is at gunpoint!”
“Nah we can’t help you there. Maybe call the landlord idc lol. Stay Safe tho lmao.”

That operator is such a liar, police officers have whole ass kits in their vehicles to help stranded and distressed drivers. Like ive had cops unlock my door for me tf

[asia]

It wasn’t the police’s fault it was the operator who needs to be FIRED !

“Can you come break my window open, my baby is trapped in the car”
“Ma’am this is a Wendy’s”

[esjkcfs]

"hello 911? I've been shot and bleeding please send help"
operator: I'm sorry we don't have the tools to stop your bleeding. go to the hospital or something idc"

[DerMimi]

Imagine someone drowning...
Operator: sorry, you have to learn to swim on your own.

[jairoherrera]

The police (with nightstick) and the fire department (with axe) do in fact have the tools to break into the windows. That operator is lying.

The baby looks so beautiful and precious while she’s sleeping.

"we don't unlock vehicles" the cops have unlocked my car before but okay.

[emilyadams]

“We don’t unlock vehicles” like no they do they came when a girl got stuck in a seat belt, they should have came the 911 operator needs to be fired

[MakeupPearls]

Wow she looks great for a great grandma. I’m so happy the baby was taken out safe. Thank you Jesus Christ ❤️
