This happened to me one time like 15 years ago. I was sitting on a bench and a pay phone next to me started ringing. I picked it up and the local police department was on the other end.
They said they’d gotten a 911 call from this number. I said this was a pay phone and they were like, “Oh. Are there like, any kids or teenagers around?”
I looked around. There was a big group of teenagers maybe 30ft from where I was sitting. “Yep, there’s a few nearby.”
They said, “It was probably them. But we’re gonna send someone by just to make sure everything’s okay.”
A few minutes later a cop came by and asked if I was the person they spoke to on the phone. “Yep.” He looked around and verified there was no emergency and then left.
