‘911, What’s Your Emergency?’ ‘Can You Bring Me McDonald’s?’
Read Time:58 Second
Sometimes you have a legit emergency and sometimes your emergency is a Big Mac attack.
The latter was the case of Michigan 5-year-old Iziah Hall, who awoke early last Sunday really jonesing for some McDonald’s, reports WZZM.
The only problem was his grandmother was sleeping, so Iziah called 911 and asked “Can you bring me some McDonald’s?” The dispatcher was taken aback and told Iziah no, but sent Officer Dan Patterson to do a wellness check on the home in town of Wyoming.
Patterson took it in stride. “I was laughing to myself… 5-year-old calls dispatch and orders McDonald’s,” he says. “I figured, hey, I’m driving past McDonald’s on my way there and I might as well get him something.”
When he arrived, Iziah appeared to have reconsidered his tactics. “I think the first thing he said to me was, “My grandma’s gonna be so mad, can you please go away?” Patterson says. Regardless, his dispatcher says the move was “really cool” and “made our night.”

I saw something similar to this on Quora. I hope his Gradma didn’t get too mad at him. As one officer said, there was both an opportunity for a learning lesson and a positive imagery all rolled together. Reminds me of the kid in the Godzilla movie waking his dad up in the middle of the night to tell him there was a monster in their backyard. “Yeah, yeah” said the dad just before Godzilla scares the bejesus out of all of them.
Old guy? Well yeah the kid would be right and I’m just 31 😂
Awww, sometimes you have to laugh at kids. My niece did things like that when she was little too. She would call up her uncle Kent when her dad was gone on business to tell him about the monsters under the bed and the only way was for the old guy to get rid of them and since her dad wasn’t there, she could only think of her uncle the next old guy she knew. He was in his early 30s 🙂 AYUP, he would go out in his jammie bottoms and sweat shirt to rid her of the monsters under the bed. He would have been such a good dad had he been allowed to. FUCK, just NOT FUCKIN FAIR.
Next old guy: “In his early ’30’s. LOL. Kids say the darndest things.
