Nothing in article states how much was the victim was fined by the cops for calling them.
It’s now about $1,200 for an ambulance ride by the LAFD, but only if you have a SS number. Taxes not enough to cover cost of basic gov operations? Or money already spent on illegals/EV buses/tranny surgeries?
It’s common for obvious false alarm calls to be billed by police due to negligence by the owner, never a legit call.
