Man Calls 911 - needs ride to a bar

Maybe they should change their number, everybody knows about 911 now, even this guy. (above photo)
This fine citizen called 911 claiming he'd been beaten and shot at was really hoping his story would get him a ride to a bar.
Instead, 37-year-old Gregory J. Oras is facing charges of misusing the 911 system and battery of a law enforcement officer.
Oras called 911 three times before his arrest early Tuesday in Oldsmar, northwest of Tampa.
He told the dispatcher he had a broken nose and bleeding ears, and claimed people were shooting at him.
(maybe he meant he deserved to be shot at)
Police say he was actually looking for a ride to yet another bar.
The report also says Oras kicked a sheriff's deputy in the knees and a Taser was used to subdue him.

Woman calls 911 when husband refuses to eat dinner

Deep in the heart of Texas – Prosecutors are looking at the case of a woman who has called 911 thirty times over six months for non-emergency reasons, including a call to complain that her husband refused to eat his dinner.
Last Friday, the woman allegedly made a pair of calls to 911, including a hang-up and another where a woman was heard screaming.
Police were dispatched to the residence and said police were told by her that "her husband did not want to eat his supper."
Sure, this woman sounds stupid, and oh yeah. she is, but she's not alone.

Here's a little list of other losers:

• The woman who called 911 to ask a police officer on a date.
• The lonely man who called 911 over 27,000 times.
• The woman who called 911 because McDonald's didn't have McNuggets.
• The woman who called 911 over lack of shrimp in fried rice from a restaurant.
• The couple who called the police to settle a cold feet argument.
• The man who called 911 because he was turned away at a nightclub. 
• 911 call over missing box of orange juice from McDonald's. 
• Man calls 911 to say he is hungry

Man with 5-inch knife stuck in chest orders coffee

Did you hear the one about the man who walks into a coffee shop with a 5-inch knife stuck in his chest... stop us if you've heard this one before...
A 52 year old  man who complained only that the weather was cold as he walked into a diner with a five-inch knife sticking out of his chest, and calmly ordered coffee.
He said he had been stabbed during a robbery attempt half a mile away, then walked to the restaurant and called 911 from a pay phone.
On a recording of the call, the man gives a vague description of his attacker before saying, "I'm gonna sit down at Bray's (the diner) 'cause they got a chair and it's cold out here."

We are happy to report the man is recovering.

Man Calls 911 Twice To Report He's Hungry

In Delray Beach Florida a man was arrested after calling 911 twice for a ride and saying he was hungry. Police say said Benjamin Dewer, 26, was charged early Wednesday with making false calls to 911.
The report said Dewer was apparently drunk when police found him sitting on a sidewalk.
He asked police for a ride to a park and told them he was hungry.

When police turned him down, hungry Dewer walked off and called 911 a second time for a ride.

Dewer is now being held behind bars and probably something to eat at the Palm Beach County Jail on a $1,000 bond.
