Loud noises in the toilet prompt 911 call.

A Canadian man has been left red-faced after his excessively loud toilet grunting prompted a neighbour to call emergency services because she thought something serious was wrong.

Police rushed to the scene in British Columbian capital Victoria after receiving a 911 call reporting a yelling and shouting coming from a
basement at 5am.

And when they got there, officers say they could hear low moaning and babbling coming from inside the suite.

Eventually after repeated and knocks and announcements by the officers a man opened the door.

When questioned about the amount of noise he was making the man explained that he had been essentially (in his own different words) on the toilet having his morning constitutional but he was done now. Officers asked him to try to keep the noise down in such future endeavours and he said he would do his best.
