Mike Forbess, a 911 dispatcher in Watauga, Texas, was formally reprimanded after making an inappropriate joke during an emergency call. A mother called for help because her daughters were fighting and one had kicked a hole in a door. “OK,” Forbess replied. “Do you want us to come over to shoot her?” The dispatcher later admitted the comment was wrong and apologized, saying he meant it as a joke.
