An Ohio teenager called the cops on her dad after he took away her iPhone. "My father took my property, which is an $800 phone that doesn't belong to him,” the teenager told 911. “He didn't buy it.” Officers with the South Euclid Police Department responded to the scene at the Robertson home and sided with the dad. They told the teen that “having a cellphone under the age of 18 is a ‘privilege’ and not a ‘right’ as she believes.” Police did not pursue the case after that.
