A rogue 911 phone operator in New Orleans allegedly hung up on callers who dialed the emergency response line for help.
Precious Stephens, 25, faces charges of malfeasance and interfering with an emergency communication after disconnecting phone calls without getting any information or relaying the incidents to emergency dispatchers, the New Orleans Police Department said.
