熊孩子恶作剧报假警 写道歉信求原谅

Dear Beltrami 911 dispatchers,

I was the one prank calling you. I really truly apologize and I learned that that is not okay and it’s not a joke. My mom told me that people have died because of this. I feel really bad and I wanted to make up so I wrote this letter. I also feel really bad about my grandma and grandpa because it was their house and I was afraid they would get charged. I’m really sorry. This won’t happen again. I hope you have a good new year. Please forgive me.

PS  I love your service. Thank you.

The Beltrami police sent back a letter and accepted the child’s apology letter, and made sure to let him know that they are still his friend.
