Stock photo of an empty toilet roll. See SWNS story SWTOILET: A caller dialled 999 because he had run out of TOILET roll. Audio footage of the time-waster has been released by police as a warning about the growing number clogging the emergency number with silly requests. The short conversation starts with the operator asking: “What’s your emergency.” The caller says: “Erm, I have run out of toilet roll” and the angry call-handler responds: “And you are calling 99 for that reason?”
