Two young brothers from Mayville are likely hoping they haven't landed on Santa's naughty list after police showed up at their doorstep.
The boys, ages 3 and 6, thought the best way to get in touch with the North Pole was by phone. And for youngsters of that age, their Christmas lists could be considered an emergency.
So, the brothers used their dad's cellphone to place a 911 call, hoping to be connected with the North Pole and the big guy himself.
The Beaver Dam Daily Citizen says that brought Mayville police to their home where officers gave the boys some advice. If you want to talk to Santa, do it in person.
