    My touch screen randomly disabled itself and when I attempted to shut my phone off, it instead triggered a 911 call.

    The only way to stop it? Swiping right on the touch screen.

    I was just a bit frustrated and had no idea 5 taps triggered emergency calls. What a terrible event. Q.Q

      I too was having screen issues. Once i had accidentally started the call, I waited for them to answer, explained what happened, and apologized. I then stopped fuckin’ around with my broken ass phone.
