Police in Wales called to investigate UFO report.
In order to show an example of how time is wasted for the police with calls to the police emergency line, police released a transcript of one such call :
Quote:
Control: "South Wales Police, what's your emergency?"
Caller: "It's not really. I just need to inform you that across the mountain there's a bright stationary object."
Control: "Right."
Caller: "If you've got a couple of minutes perhaps you could find out what it is? It's been there at least half an hour and it's still there."
That was a portion of the 999 call received by the police in Wales from a South Wales resident The police were dispatched to observe the "stationary object" that concerned the resident.
The police then called their control room to report their findings :
Quote:
Control: "Alpha Zulu 20, this object in the sky, did anyone have a look at it?"
Officer: "Yes, it's the moon. Over."
