The alleged attacker was still in the residence, Tiffany needed to think of a way to get help but not alert the man.
"I was thinking to myself, ‘Okay, I need to call 911 but how do I get him to stay in the house so that he would be taken out in handcuffs.'"
That's when she decided to pretend to order a pizza.
A Clever Escape Plan
Instead of calling the restaurant, the scared woman calls 911. But when the dispatcher first answered the phone, he thought it might be a prank.
When Tiffany persisted in her order, operator Tim Teneyck felt something was wrong.
"She didn't go away from the story that she wanted a pizza,” he said. “She stuck right to it. I knew there was something else going on."
By asking her yes or no questions, Tim was able to figure out that this was a domestic violence situation. He alerted the proper authorities and even instructed them to not use sirens to alert the alleged attacker.
