Niagara Regional Police have released the audio of a 911 call they received this week from a caller who swore at the operator and complained about an Amber Alert message sent to his phone. Niagara Regional Police have released audio from a 911 call, where a man complains about an Amber Alert for a missing child. Police forces across Ontario have issued warnings in recent months to people who receive the Amber Alert alarm on their phones not to call 911 to complain about the system, which sends a widespread alert to nearby phones. Calling to complain about an Amber Alert ties up precious resources for others who may need help," Niagara police said in a tweet. "We felt it was necessary to put out the Amber Alert in order to ensure he was safely found and it did just that: he was safely found."
