cynics... this is about a good laugh, not to nitpick. These internet stories are about a good laugh- like a movie or a sitcom. Leave it at that.
In that sense- you've got to admit, this is a pretty funny story!

My sentiments exactly willard. I thought it was pretty funny, not because I thought it was real, but because it was just funny. That's it.
Stupid spacebar, it squeaks every time I press it, jerk.

That makes this story not add up. Read carefully, you guys should have cought that.
That's true. I'm pretty sure this was just fictional, but it was definitely a good laugh and my technicians got a kick out of it
However, if she called the main line (and not 911), the vast majority of phones in police offices which have a caller ID display only display a phone number and not a name. If they wanted to confirm the address and what-not, they'd have to do a reverse lookup on the phone number to get the person's name. The likelyhood of that... Well, honestly I could not say.
Okay, I'm overanalyzing this, it's just a story *facepalm against self*!
