Police in West Yorkshire have launched an urgent appeal to trace a little girl who dialled 999 to say her mother was not moving.

The girl, who gave her name as Ellie, called the ambulance service to say her mum had fallen at their home in Leeds.

She said she was three years old and that her mother is called Stacey Hall.

She also told the 999 operators that her house number was 23 and had "Court" in the street name.

She said her grandparents lived in Bridlington.

The call was made at 10.53am yesterday but despite extensive enquiries since then the police have been unable to identify where it came from.

Detective chief inspector Lisa Griffin, from West Yorkshire's homicide and major enquiry team, said: "We urgently need the public's help to identify exactly where Ellie and her mum are.

"We are hoping that someone out there who knows the family will recognise the pieces of information that the ambulance call taker managed to get from her and will get in touch.

"We are treating this situation extremely seriously as it appears we have a woman in need of urgent medical attention and a vulnerable little girl who will also need our help.

"I want people to listen very carefully to Ellie's voice and to think about the pieces of information that we have and let us know immediately if they recognise who Ellie and her mum are and, most importantly, where they live so we can get help to them."

During the call, that lasted 33 minutes, Ellie told the call-taker she was nearly four years old and that her mum had fallen over and would not get up.

She said she had shouted at her mum and wiggled her but she remained on the kitchen floor with a piece of toast in her hand not moving.

She said the front and back door were locked and she could not get out of the house.

A team of detectives has been making wide-ranging enquiries to trace the family, including checks on police systems, hospitals, and the public register of births.

Anyone who thinks they know who Ellie and her mum Stacey Hall are and where they live is asked to urgently call the homicide and major enquiry team via 0800 056 0944.

Waste of police time hoax Gill,tbh when i listened to the recording before played on City talk fm my first thoughts were " would a 3 year old know to dial 999?" i dont know if they would tbh,but my bro's kids wouldnt at that age i knew that much.

Think they've arrested or talking to a cpl of older kids it came on the radio half an hour later....

The little girl must have phoned from a mobile, my son phoned 999 once and put the phone down and we received a call from them asking if everything thing was ok. It's hard to assess what exactly is the situation, it looks serious on the face of it, hopefully it isn't, I am sure we will find out eventually.

Kids don't have to press 999 mate, as long as they press 999 to start with, it rings Emergency services immediately even if they press 999768453908765432 lol.

Be a bit coincidental if that happened tho mate,i know they can do it by accident(its happened plenty),but to "know" to press 999 when their mams had a fall???if yer heard the recording you'd have been dubious as well,i know i was
