WEB EXCLUSIVE: 911 prank calls

GRAND TRAVERSE CO. -- Authorities are looking into a group of prank 911 calls that came into the Grand Traverse County Dispatch Wednesday night.

The calls starting pouring in just before 8p.m. If you listen to the call, you can tell it's a child's voice saying, first, that there is a "bad man" and "bad guy". In other calls, the child told dispatch that they're having a heart attack.

Authorities located the prank callers at East Bay Calvary Church on Hammond Road. In all, 14 calls were made. Emergency crews rushed to the scene, even though there was no emergency taxpayers will pay the bill.
