This explains the 'hoax'. It's a game!

Cops are fearful 'bombing' is fatal attraction to players

It's a game called "bombing," and police from New Jersey to Washington state fear it could turn deadly.

People make bogus 911 emergency calls -- sometimes using Internet technology to mimic the phone number of their unwary target -- and then boast online about how many SWAT team officers rush to the fake crisis with guns drawn.

Ok, I'm confused.

Let's just *say* the call went into 911 for kicks and giggles vs. sincerity.

One of the perps got on the phone to 911 and said he would shoot anyone that approached the house.

So, irregardless as to whether this was for humor or real, he should be charged and treated as if he had a live weapon the entire time.
