Wyoming police say a false 911 call led to multiple police and sheriff’s departments responding to a home on Christmas Day.

Police say a Chisago County dispatcher received a call at about 11:20 a.m. Monday from a man who said he was going to hurt his mother, before the sound of gunshots was heard on the call.

The caller then gave an address on Pioneer Road where officers and deputies from Lakes Area, North Branch, Forest Lake, Chisago County and Washington County were dispatched.

Law enforcement then determined that no one was in danger and no one at the home called police.

Authorities then confirmed that the initial 911 call was a SWAT call and are working to determine if anyone can be criminally charged for the fraudulent call.
