When a Wisconsin toddler found his ice cream missing, he did what any law-abiding citizen would—he called 911.
His emergency? “My mommy is being bad,” he told the dispatcher. “Come and get my mommy.”
Mount Pleasant police responded to the call, only to discover the tiny complainant had dialed in because his mother had taken his ice cream. The guilty party—his mom—confessed immediately. “I ate his ice cream, so that’s probably why he’s calling,” she admitted.
Officers arrived to investigate, confirming that dessert theft had indeed occurred. The young caller initially stood firm on his demand for justice but later showed mercy, deciding that a replacement scoop would be punishment enough.
In a heartwarming twist, police returned two days later with two scoops of ice cream topped with blue sprinkles—proving that sometimes, justice is best served cold.
