In My World

We all know people make prank calls. I love prank calls. Now, this story has NOTHING to do with prank calls. I just wanted to talk about prank calls.
All I have to say, “Opps, sorry. We had better things to do.”

The caller, known only as Terry, was taking part in the Magic 1548 show hosted by Pete Price on Thursday.

The DJ, concerned when the line went dead, abandoned the show and rushed to the man’s house in the Old Swan area, to find he had suffered a heart attack.

Merseyside Police later apologised for not sending an officer to investigate after Mr Price phoned them.

He had contacted them before going to the caller’s house but was told there were higher priority incidents to be dealt with.

Asst Ch Con Helen King said the force was “very sorry that last night a member of the public called us asking for help and we didn’t provide it”.

She added the force sent its sympathies to the man’s family and an inquiry would be held by the Independent Police Complaints Commission.
