911! I’m Locked In My Car…Oh, Pull Lock? Thanks

A woman locked in her car in Kissimmee called 911 on Tuesday. “It’s getting very hot in here, and I’m not feeling well,” the caller told the dispatcher.The woman said nothing electrical was working, so her locks wouldn’t open.The dispatcher calmly told her to pull the lock up with her hand.”Um, I’m sorry,” said the woman, who was not identified, after the lock opened.And, no, officials say, this was not an early April Fool’s Day joke.

The fact that today is April Fool’s Day is merely pure coincidence. This sort of thing happens on a daily basis in Florida.
