Dilligen (dpa / lby) – According to the police, a prank call that was received by the inspection in Dillingen in Swabia was not funny at all. A previously unknown caller reported that a person had been stabbed in the taxi park and that the perpetrator was fleeing towards the train station, the investigators said on Tuesday. Two patrols then went out on Monday, but found on site that the report was false. The caller’s personal details were also wrong.

Shortly afterwards, using the same telephone number, someone ordered pizza and pasta from a gas establishment worth 26 euros, which was to be delivered to an address. But no one opened the door there. The police are now investigating the owner of the phone number for fraud and pretending to be a criminal offence.
