Slidell Resident Calls 911 to Report Shortage of Taco Bell Shells

But it was both hard AND soft shells...

Guys, 911 is not a toy. You call it in emergency situations. If you're in line at Taco Bell, there is a good chance that you don't have a single reason to call the police. However, that didn't stop one resident in Slidell, Louisiana for dialing those three little digits.

According to the local police department's Facebook page, this person "called to complain that the Taco Bell on Gause Boulevard ran out of both hard and soft taco shells."

I appreciate the humor of the police as they pointed out how terrible of a situation this is. It's still not the proper use of that number. Maybe next time this person could use that same phone to Google the CEO of Taco Bell? Of course, that still wouldn't get you tacos any sooner.

Or maybe this person just needs a hard shell themselves...
