Athens Police Department officers were sent on Thursday afternoon to check out several 911 calls received with nothing but static on the other end. Officers James Graham and Josh Ames were sent to an Athens residence to check out the calls that originated from a cell phone. They found that the calls were the result of an unusual form of “pocket dialing.”
