When a call 'to order pizza' becomes an urgent plea for help...📞
We received a 999 call – but when it was answered, the woman on the line said she would like to order a pizza.
Our call handler immediately asked the woman if she was in trouble, to which she confirmed “yes”.
This is a statement written by Sarah Everard’s mother. It’s beautifully written, the pain is palpable, and the content is poignant. It’s heartbreaking to read, and yet it barely even scrapes the surface of the agony she must be feeling. RIP Sarah. #SheWasJustWalkingHome
