              okay to answer your question it doesn’t matter if it’s swat or not

              Swatting is a criminal harassment act of deceiving an emergency service into sending a police or emergency service response team to another person’s address. [wikipedia]

      Search for Swatting incidents and see how many people have been terrorized or killed on the basis of nothing but an anonymous phone call.

      If you make the stakes high enough in the 911 call, absolutely. You don’t want cops to waste time checking things out if a real hostage situation is playing out of whatever.
