America at it's finest. This is far from the first time that I have heard of such a thing happening.

Since when is calling the SWAT a prank? Some people really take stupidity to a whole other level.

That was a hoax article, sadly. Moron would have deserved it.

Not nearly enough. It's a waste of time and resources for their victims and the forces involved, as well as pointless endangerment of lives.

I've heard that if the American cops don't use their fancy toys within a month of issuing, they get taken back.
So I assume they don't consider it a waste of resources. They're probably glad for any opportunity they can find to storm buildings.
