This is one of Ole's joke. You might have heard something similar to this one.

Ole and his wife, Lena, immigrated to America from Norway. They went out for a walk on morning. Suddenly Lena felt sick and couldn’t go any further. Ole called an emergency number for help. As an operator came on the line, Ole said, “My name is Ole. My wife is sick; she needs to be sent to an emergency room.”
The operator asked, “Where are you?”
Ole responded, “I’m not sure where I am.”
Operator: “Then go to a corner where the street sign is.”
Ole: “O.k. The name of the street is eucalyptus.”
Operator: “How do you spell it?”
Ole: “U-k. Just a minute. Just a minute.”. In the meantime the operator could hear the sound of struggling and heavy breathing in the background.
Operator: “Ole..Ole.. Are you okay?”
There was no answer. Finally, Ole picked the phone again and said, “We are on Oak Street, O.A.K."

A good joke which plays with words that sound like letters. Excuse my ignorance, but who is Ole?

He's a character of Norwegian's jokes, not a real person, I'm afraid
