Calling 911 because of cold fries? What? I could see calling 911 if it was warm beer. But cold fries?
Woman in Savannah, Georgia calls 911 because her fries are cold. Police respond and buy her more fries.
The cops bought her more fries. The last thing in the world that woman needs is more fries.

Pretty soon 911 will solve all of your problems. Are you unhappy? Does your pillow need fluffing? Did the sun go down to soon? Is your fried chicken not greasy enough? Call 911 for all of your needs and wants.
Here's the real deal:
The woman sent her two young boys to buy the food. They did. They walked down the street to the Health Dept. When they got there either they or she said the fries "tasted funny". She walked back with them to complain. It had been 11 minutes since she bought them. This was around 12:30pm at lunchtime. Li'l Chick is always busy at that time and fries are served up every 3 minutes and kept under heat lamps at 140 degrees minimum. They are crinkle fries, not skinny ones. They will stay hot in a foam container for at least 30 minutes. She didn't like them for some reason. Sometimes people don't like the color of them. Sometimes people realize they spent too much and want their money back. Nobody knows why she wanted new free ones except her. The fries she received were NOT cold at all. The story was reported because when she called the police they tried to get Li'l Chick to give her free fries. They said "NO". There was nothing wrong with the ones she had now 18 minutes earlier. The cop then said:
"okay I want you to remember this when your customers are parking along the street, because we are going to issue them citations. "
That was taken as a threat to the worker and he confronted the officer asking him "is that a threat?" The officer obviously wasn't used to a citizen expressing his rights so he was upset.
Supervisors were called and the situation wasn't resolved. The news channel mentioned that a threat was claimed but the police said there was no threat so they turned the story into "woman calls 911 for cold fries".
The problem arose from a police officer not doing what he should have done and his supervisor not doing what she should have done either. Formal complaints were made and an internal investigation is being conducted on this officer.
Hopefully she learned her lesson and so did the police. Probably not.
Hey thanks for telling the rest of the story. That's more than the local media was reporting.
