Police were called after a man allegedly assaulted a woman with a kebab following a night out in Manchester.
The takeaway favourite struck the victim after being hurled across the street at about 3am on Thursday.
She dialled 999 to report the kebab attack and that she had then been assaulted, police said.
But she rang back soon afterwards and told officers she did not want to make a complaint.
Greater Manchester Police had originally tweeted the incident, saying: "999s today include report of assault with a kebab at 3am on Whitworth St West."
