Does an anonymous call about 'suspicious' activity' really warrant a police heliciopter being scrambled at significant cost to all of us?

They probably did it deliberately so as to annoy the "Helicopter Haters" of Carshalton!

What was the call about? Everytime I hear of stories of people calling the police they are, most of the time unavailable. #pickandchoose
