Screams spark 911 ‘Call of Duty’
This first-person experience became too real.
Cops were called to a Florida home after frightened neighbors reported sounds of gunfire and a woman screaming, “No, please don’t kill me.”
All it was, however, was a couple playing the videogame “Call of Duty.”
A resident at a mobile home community in Deland called 911 on Thursday after her sister heard yelling when she was outside smoking a cigarette, WKMG reported.
“Hi, I’m calling because I hear my neighbors fighting down the street from me and I’m a little bit concerned with what their saying," the caller said.
She told 911 she thought she heard a woman scream and say “No, please don’t kill me,” and a man ask, “Where did you take my gun?”
Authorities went to the home where the yelling was heard — and found the “disturbance” was a couple playing “Call of Duty” with their windows open.
A bodycam video from police at the house of the couple shows a woman confused, wondering why authorities were at her house.
An officer questions the woman, asking if they were arguing or yelling earlier.
“Not us, we don’t argue. But we’re playing a video game,” the woman said, responding to the officer’s questions.
The “threatening” words the caller may have overheard would have been in reference to the game, the couple told police.
