Jaco Gericke from CPF Medical in Phalaborwa posted on his Facebook page that they received a call from the Fire Department.
‘A Helicopter crashed in the trees opposite Caltex in Phalaborwa. We all responded. CPF Medical, Mopanya 911, Fire Department, SAPS and CPF Crime.’
Only to find out upon arrival at the ‘scene’ that it was a little toy drone helicopter high up in a tree.
‘The boys phoned the Fire Department for help with a ladder but the call was miss understood,’ Gericke said.
In true Christmas spirit, Gericke said: ‘The call was so-so funny, a very good mock call for all of us in Phalaborwa.’
