An 11-year-old boy in Stockholm, Sweden, ended up getting help with his
homework by the police after he rang them up saying he was concerned a
burglar was breaking into his house.
The boy was home alone at night when he heard a loud thump and became
convinced that a thief was trying to get inside. He quickly got on the
phone to the local police who were dispatched to the scene.
After a quick check it turned out that there was no burglar but the boy was still upset and had another problem - his math homework. "He had called his mother also but he was on his own when the police got there.
"They didn't want to leave him alone so they sat down and helped him with his multiplication tables and other homework," Viktor Adolphson of the Södermalm police said. He said the boy was right to alert them in the first place. "Even though it wasn't a thief it was a good thing to do," Adolphson added.
