Why are they taking the word of a random, unidentified caller?

  That's the real problem.

  Isn't that every police call? As far as I know dispatchers aren't psychics.

    There’s a big difference between sending people out to investigate an untrusted report, and going in guns blazing because an anonymous voice on the phone said the situation was dangerous. You act on the information but you don’t trust it.
