Cutest 911 call you’ll ever hear
Hancock County - It took a five-year-old girl to save her father's life. She talked to 911 dispatchers when she thought her father was having a heart attack.
About 9:30 Monday night, Hancock county dispatcher Jason Bonham got a call. At first, he couldn't understand the person who was on the line.
A man was in distress and unable to speak.
"You could hear the father hear a little bit where he said tell 'em or take it," said Bonham.
That's when Savannah, the man's five-year-old daughter, picked up the phone.
"My dad can't hardly breathe," she told Bonham.
The call to 911 came from a cell phone, so dispatchers didn't automatically have an address.
With her father's help, the little voice clearly repeated their street address, and with time of the essence, gave dispatchers all the information they needed.
"Is your Daddy still awake?"
"Yeah."
"Most people when you talk to them, they're hysterical," said Bonham.
Her calm was not nearly as surprising as her tender age.
"How old are you?"
"I'm five years old."

Ahhh bless her heart, and in front of the cameras she was struck dumb with shyness! Not the case calling the ambulance ! Well done Savanah ! In the UK, there have been similar instances, and it is heart warming to think that young tots can handle situations without panicking! Thanks for sharing, Rap. :-6
