JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Jacksonville police say Reginald Peterson needs
to learn that 911 is not the appropriate place to complain that Subway
left the sauce off a spicy Italian sandwich.
Police said the 42-year-old man dialed 911 twice last week so he could
have his sub made correctly. The second call was to complain that
officers weren't arriving fast enough.
Subway workers told police Peterson became belligerent and yelled when
they were fixing his order. They locked him out of the store after he
left to call police.
When officers arrived, they tried to calm Peterson and explain the
proper use of 911. Those efforts failed, and he was arrested on a
charge of making false 911 calls.
Peterson did not have a listed phone number.
I tied to call nine-eleven, but my phone doesn't have an eleven. Other
people...

TAMPA - A second Hillsborough County man has been arrested on charges
of making false 911 calls in as many days.
An arrest report says 47-year-old Carlos Gutierrez was at the Hard
Rock Hotel & Casino early Monday and called 911 to say the slot
machine stole his money. The report says Gutierrez left the casino to
place a second 911 call to say the same thing.
He was arrested and charged with making a false 911 call. He's being
held with no bail set.
On Sunday another man was arrested after calling 911 five times during
an argument with his brother. He demanded that dispatchers send
deputies to help sort things out.

I had a similar problem. The "9" button on my phone broke off. But I
discovered that if I turned the phone upside down, I could use the "6".
