One of the first things that you teach children as they are getting older is how to use a phone to call 911. Part of that lesson usually looks like taking the child by the arms, getting onto their level, and looking into their eyes while saying, “Never call 911 unless there is an emergency. Never. Do you understand me?”. After the quick nod from the kid, they go on their merry way.
For one little boy, however, he called 911 by total accident.
Justice Tucker is a little boy who has been getting a lot of attention for a recent phone call he made.
Rasheeda Tucker was studying for school for her master’s degree one day when she was disturbed by her son, Justice. Justice had been playing on his tablet while his mom studied, but it had suddenly died. As any bored boy would do, he asked his mom if she could charge it for him.
Busy with her studies. Rasheeda told Justice that she would be able to help him in five minutes once she finished this particular section of work.
Instead of waiting, however, Justice had his own plans. Grabbing his mom’s phone, he tried to unlock it to play some games. Instead of unlocking the phone, however, he accidentally clicked the emergency services button. Rasheeda quickly grabbed the phone and hung up, but it was too late.
The police called back while Rasheeda explained what had happened.
As is the procedure, however, they still had to send an officer just to check things out. When the officer arrived, the bodycam footage was so cute that it had to be saved. Justice then proceeded to explain to the officer exactly what he wanted for his 5th birthday: a real-life police car. Turns out, his car was broken.
Laughing to herself, the officer then went to the store and brought back a little surprise for the earnest boy.
Getting back to the house, two officers hand-delivered a brand new drivable police car toy for Justice for his upcoming birthday! When they knocked on the door, however, they heard the parents shouting in the house:
“Justice, did you call the police on my phone again?!”
Although it would probably have been hilarious, he was off the hook this time!
Driving around his street, Justice was able to keep an eye on his neighborhood and keep everyone safe!
His mom explained to News 4 New York that her son actually wants to be a police officer when he grows up. She shared:
“He wants to be a cop when he gets older. He plays Officer Tucker around the house just about every day.”
The cute boy spent the day wearing a birthday hat and driving around in his brand-new toy. In a later video, he explained just how thankful he was for the incredibly nice toy that the two officers had decided to buy for him.
As a final salute, the officers gave the smitten boy a light show as they drove off for the day.
In a car of his own, Justice was able to see the police drive away, lights and emergency sirens blaring. It was assuredly his best birthday ever. Hopefully, it doesn’t inspire him to make more unnecessary 911 calls in the future!
