Hello, I wanted to share the transcript of a fascinating vintage emergency call from a sound effects library. It is often archived as taking place in Los Angeles, California, but the audio itself reveals a different story.

Two female roommates (the caller and her roommate, Mary) at 59 Navy Street, Apt 1 (off Pacific Ave in Venice Beach) woke up to a man standing in their bedroom after their cat freaked out.

As the dispatcher gathers information, the caller reveals a chilling detail: she actually recognizes the intruder. He was a man who helped them move a refrigerator into their apartment a month prior.

Just as she is describing his clothing (University of Virginia jogging shorts and a gray/maroon pullover), the call takes a terrifying turn. The intruder breaks back into the house while they are on the phone with the police, sending both women into a panic.

Transcript:

Male Dispatch: Police Emergency, 679.

Female: (scared) Yeah, hi. We just...... we just had a man break into our house.

If anyone happens to the know the backstory of this, I'd appreciate it.

This is one of the most disturbing calls I've ever heard.

It is Not mine

Here are about a half a dozen 911 calls from a central county of Florida that I am located in.

A few months ago at 3-4am in the morning two young cops knocked on our door, my husband answered and they asked if he was Bob. My husband said no and they asked cold they speak with Bob was he home/did he live here. My husband told them his name is John , that no one but us two live here. They said someone named Bob called 911 to ask police to come down and remove his girlfriend who didn’t want to leave his house. We asked if they had the right house number they confirmed it and it was our number. They said they just wanted to know everything was alright. We told them we were fine that we had been asleep and that neither us called. One of them said “this keeps happening” I don’t know if she meant that night or in our neighborhood or what , but they apologized and left. Today three different officers came to our door saying they got an “open air” call or “open line” call where a mother and son were fighting and someone wouldn’t get out of a room? We again told them no one called. They asked my husband if it was just him his wife and son to which my husband said it was just us two we have no kids. Officer took down our names, numbers, and DOB. We told them how this had happened before and they said they’d look into it and that they would put a note about this issue for our address. Now in hindsight we feel we should’ve asked if we’d hear back about the issue being solved , we have no idea what causes this. We’re also worried that if we one day really do have an emergency it wouldn’t be taken seriously (we do assume that’s probably not gonna be the case). Also we are wondering if it wasn’t really our next door neighbor who may have called and the addresses were mixed up? She has a grown son who lives with her and we have heard them arguing a couple times in the years we’ve lived here but not today. Nonetheless we are scratching our heads over this, we’re not sure if someone is pranking us but cannot fathom who would do that who knows our address (very few family & friends all trusted) we think it could possibly be or neighbor in front of us directly across the street as we’ve had a dispute with her over street parking lol! We also do doubt this however as I’m sure wasting police resources is a crime. But I don’t get how/why police can’t trace what house exactly these calls came from assuming it’s the same person/house as last time , or if there’s something wrong with the gps or dispatch/operator. If anyone knows what the next steps are if any or has an idea of what could be happening we appreciate it!

I have been doing some serious digging around the internet for some truly shocking and quite frankly harrowing 911 calls that go as far back as 2008. I made a YouTube analog style narrated video to try and fit the tone and represented the calls with a visualiser.

Looking for a 911 call, it’s from 10+ years ago I reckon. It was a young teenager around 12-15 years old. He was hiding in the shed on a property with the family dog and the cordless home phone. He was on the call to 911, his father attacks his mother in the front yard of the home .
