:xmas-smiley-010:Kent Police in southern England have blasted a woman who rang the emergency services number 999 to report the theft of her snowman. The woman has been described as "completely irresponsible" by the force in Chatham.
Police said the woman was adamant the situation warranted its assistance as the eyes were made out of £1 coins ($1.60) and the arms were made from teaspoons. The woman told emergency service operators, "It ain't a nice road but you don't expect someone to nick your snowman." Kent police have paid the woman a visit and drilled her advice on real 999 emergencies.
