A four year old boy in Kenley, London used his mom's finger to unlock her iPhone and Siri to call 999 (911), saving her life, reports BBC.

The boy, named Roman, told the emergency services operator that his mom was dead because "she's closing her eyes and she's not breathing." Police and paramedics arrived at the house within thirteen minutes and managed to revive her.

Roman, his twin brother and a younger brother were in the home at the time.

Met Police Ch Supt Ade Adelekan said: "Hearing this call brings home the importance of teaching your young child their home address and how to call police or emergency services in an emergency situation."

Within 13 minutes? That's unacceptable.

Bless you, Siri. This is like the 4th time you've done justice now.

Proof of how important is having the right technology, proper usage and emergency services doing their job the way it's meant.

Give that operator a raise for performing their job brilliantly!

Hearing this call brings home the importance of teaching your young child their home address ... Isn't that what Location Services does?

You're right. But call takers still ask for the location, and for good reason. Not everyone is calling about a patient that is located with them. And errors occasionally occur. Being able to provide an address speeds up the process, and in these situations time matters.
