Why were they "responding to a snowball fight"? What broke law were they investigating? What even made them go there? Yes the police shouldn't of taken it to this level but also which grumpy person even called the in the first place?
Here's the thing.
If someone calls 911 the police and EMS have to respond.
A while back in NYC there was some idiot who kept calling 911 and saying there was a murder going on at an abortion clinic.
They actually don't have to respond. It would be insane if they did, and the system simply wouldn't be able to function; the volume of calls (and for the most frivolous things) can be tremendous.

Don't know what 911 system you worked in, but NYC sends PD or EMS or Fire to every call, not matter how obviously frivolous.
Source?
True, i get that. My question is who called them? Not asking for doxxing information just that who ever it was is probably angry and hateful in general and should be ashamed of themselves.
