‘I Need 2 Pizzas’ 911 Gets Call from Scared Woman, Operator Realizes She’s in Trouble

Denise worked as a 911 call center respondent. Her father was a police officer, and she’d always hoped she could follow in his footsteps, serving and protecting the community.

While she initially wanted a job in the force, she could never get through the academy’s physical training because of her disability. Denise had had her legs amputated a few years back after a car accident.

“No… I didn’t make a mistake. This is the pizzeria, and I desperately need 2 pizzas from you,” Jane said. Denise heard the panic in her voice and her sniffles as if she’d been crying. She began to give the situation a second thought.
