PLEASE if you mistakenly call 911 don't hang up. Stay on the line and let the operator know it was accidental - it will save them the time it takes to call you back and allow them to answer other emergency calls! Durham Regional Police Central East Division tweeted that OVER THE LONG WEEKEND THEY HAD 6,699 CALLS! (3,0345 calls to 911+ 3,664 to non emergency /general inquiry) Unfortunately, included in the count were 637 hang-ups that had to be called back
