### Comment:
Yeah its quite unfortunate, but most times without a follow up call it will be put to the side for higher priorities until accidentally or purposefully forgotten and its time to go off shift. If you have a real emergency and no one comes after 5 minute, do a follow up call, it will save your life.

### REPLY:
And I guess if it's really life or death start lying in the follow-up call.  'There's a black man with a gun...' suddenly dozens of cop cars show up!
