Prank Calls Set Off Hotel Fire Alarms in 4 States

Prank callers have been calling hotel workers and guests early in the morning, claiming there is a gas leak. They tend to sound very professional, and have other people join the call, to make it sound more interesting.

According to the Today Show, one deputy actually smashed the window in his hotel room, threw a mattress out of the window, and was getting ready to throw his kids out of the window.

This is yet another example that should make us ask how civilized this society really is.
