"Officers used it as an opportunity to teach about the proper use of 911, then went and bought a large box of pizza and personally delivered it," the department said, posting an image of the officers standing behind the boy, who is holding a Pizza Hut box.
Sanford Police hashtagged the Facebook post with #foodemergency, #pizzahotline, #speedydelivery, #servicecomesinmanyforms and #pleasedontcall911fordelivery -- using this opportunity to teach the boy a valuable lesson.
