You’re asked not to call 911 for questions about Halloween according to the Kingsport Police Department.The KPD said that it has been receiving calls from people asking what day and time trick-or-treating will be held this year.Public Information Officer for the KPD Tom Patton said, “We only have so many dispatchers, we only have so many phone lines that can be answered at one given time so when people call 911 for unnecessary things like that it does tie up valuable resources that should be used for more important things.”
