Rapper The Game incited a telephone flash mob that overwhelmed the emergency phone system at one of L.A.’s busiest police stations. And he could face criminal charges, police said Saturday.
The Game tweeted the phone number of the Compton station Friday and told his 580,000 Twitter followers (He only has 580k followers? How lame) to call the number if they wanted an internship, always- busy department spokesman Steve Whitmore said.
The station’s phones started ringing Friday night, and the lines were jammed for hours. During that time people with legitimate issues that included a missing person, spousal abuse and two robberies were also trying to call in, Whitmore said.
The Game later posted that his account had been hacked but also tweeted that it had been an accident.

“Dat was an accident but maybe now yall can actually do yall job !!!!”
