CARPENTERSVILLE -- Emergency dispatchers heard a child's voice, but couldn't tell where the call was being made from.
At times, 15 to 20 calls came during a shift. Then they stopped for a week. By the end of last month, a 4-year-old had called QuadCom's emergency center 287 times using a deactivated cell phone, according to executive director Steve Cordes.
