As the New York Post reported, a little boy picked up the phone last week and called the police because his mom had committed a "horrible crime" - she had just eaten his ice cream!

The four-year-old didn't find this funny at all. On the phone, he kept saying that the officers should arrest his mother.

"My mom is bad (...) Come and get my mom," said the little boy.

While the emergency call center tried to figure out what exactly the problem was, his mother picked up the phone and explained why she was in trouble.

"I ate his ice cream, that's probably why he's calling 911 (the American emergency number)," the mom said.

But the situation didn't end there, because shortly after the cute cry for help, the officers actually came to the family.

By then, however, the boy had calmed down again.

Although he was still angry, he no longer wanted his mother to go to prison.

The next day, the police officers visited the family again - but this time with a sweet surprise for the four-year-old. The officers thought the story was so cute that they promptly brought him his well-deserved ice cream.

In a Facebook post , the police headquarters shared a cute photo showing two officers and the little boy proudly holding his ice cream.
