On November 8, 2024, Bart Simpson swatted Moe’s Tavern by making a fake 911 call claiming a hostage situation. Police arrived in full force, only to discover it was a prank using Homer’s old phone. The incident caused panic, disrupted Moe’s business, and misused emergency services. Bart, showing no remorse, was charged with filing a false report and public endangerment but was released into his parents’ custody. Moe may press charges, and Bart is grounded indefinitely.
