Terrified Chicago mom rings 911 during home invasion - only for dispatcher 'to tell her to phone politician instead and ask for more police funding'
A mother, who was the victim of a home invasion, is outraged after a 911 dispatcher told her she should call a local lawmaker to request more police funding.
Michelle, who has chosen to remain anonymous, called 911 six times after two men broke into her Chicago home. When they picked up, they told her if she wanted help from the police, she should call her alderman and demand more funding for the Chicago police department.
'A gentleman got on and said sorry to say we have no units to send you…then there was an awkward pause,' she told NBC Chicago. 'He also recommended I call my alderman and I said why- and he said encourage him to hire more police.'
