999: What's Your Emergency?

South Yorkshire Police reveal what happens when people seek revenge by street justice, from a supermarket brawl to taking a hammer on the rampage, as well as a hit-and-run as payback.

A look at the challenges South Yorkshire Police face with time-wasting 999 calls and also with helping vulnerable people, including a confused lady who can't find her way home.

This episode reveals the realities of policing home drinking. A family gathering spills into the street and gets out of control. An ambulance crew are in danger at a house party.

The South Yorkshire Police deal with complex cases of parents living in fear of their own children. In Sheffield, a mother asks for her 15-year-old to be taken into custody after he starts causing damage at their home, and for the second time in three days, the same officers are despatched to a report of a son attacking his father. Elsewhere, a distraught mother is under siege from her violent and aggressive 23-year-old son.
