It looks like Floridians need a remedial course on appropriate reasons to call 911. We are going with a two for one special here in Floridians Are Crazy #23.
Reginald Peterson, 42, here called the cops twice to complain about the service he was getting from the sandwich artists at his local Subway. Apparently the sandwich artist forgot to put some kind of sauce on the two spicy italian sandwiches that Mr. Peterson had ordered. Peterson was hoping that the cops would respond to his calls and force the poor guy behind the counter to make the sandwichs up to his “specifications”. The cops showed, but instead of helping Peterson out of his sandwich jam they put him in a new jam by arresting him for making false 911 calls. Dude, the spicy italian is on the $5 footlong menu. Just be happy about the cheap sandwich and chill the fuck out.
Original Story: The Smoking Gun
Most of us are familar with the basic operation of a slot machine. You drop your money in, pull the lever and nothing comes out. Well it appears that Carlos Gutierrez, 47, was a little foggy on the whole procedure. Carlos called the fuzz from inside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa, FL to report that a slot machine had stolen his money. One call wasn’t enough. Once Carlos left the casino he called again and this time the fuzz showed up and just like in Mr. Peterson’s case they arrested Gutierrez for making false 911 calls. I really want to know how much money Carlos lost in the slot machine. I would hope that it would at least be triple digits to warrant the calls to 911 but I have a feeling we are probably talking low double digits.
