She said it didn't sound like the voice of a teenager or someone in their 20s and she thought it could be a Dublin accent speaking.

She also said that there was no way for them to know how long the caller had been waiting and that the call had lasted about two minutes. She said that usual procedure would have been to call emergency services before calling the supervisor.
