A 911 yes , and other charges if someone dies as a result of them unable to take another persons call because they were talking to your sorry A**.

Um....prank call "411" in the U.S.? An automated telephone information service? Heh! Good one!

I don't think so - our emergency number is 112.

Yes you can. And they know exactly where you are when you call. And if it is a hangup call they show up at your door to make sure everything is ok.

Im not realy sure if u would get arrested or just fined. but i would not do it becouse you are wasting the police time when they have more important things to do such as emergency calls. im not against prankcalling or just pranking but not to the police.
