10-year-old boy’s unusual 911 call over math homework had the sweetest ending

In an unexpected turn of events, a 10-year-old boy in Wisconsin seeking help with his math homework dialed 911 last week, prompting an unusual yet heartwarming response from Deputy Chase Mason of the Shawano County Sheriff’s Office. As reported by the New York Post, the boy admitted he knew calling the emergency line for non-life-threatening issues wasn’t ideal but said, "I really could use some help with my homework." Before leaving, Deputy Mason provided the Wisconsin boy a gentle reminder to use the non-emergency line for non-life-threatening situations in the future. "This was a great teaching moment for all," the Shawano County Sheriff’s Office praised Mason’s actions in a Facebook post, commending Deputy Mason for his kindness and patience.
