Man Calls 911 To Demand Beer Delivery
Last Update: 11/07 3:10 pm
(NBC News) From NBC News
It may have seemed like an emergency at the time, but a Connecticut man is now regretting his call to 911. The man, 35-year-old Brian Poulin of Hebron, was arrested Sunday after police said he called 911 several times and asked them to bring him beer. Hebron was charged with disorderly conduct.
Police said he called 911 numerous times and told the dispatcher he was out of beer and asked them to pick up more for him. Poulin was transported to Windham Community Memorial Hospital after officers arrested him at his home.
Police did not say what he was treated for.
He is scheduled to appear in Superior Court in Rockville on Nov. 20.
Sounds like a real emergency to me.
Poor planning on his part, Football and no beer, I guess he doesn't have Tivo either.
Had a neighbor a few decades ago who cut his hand as he put it through the glass of the hallway fire extinguisher cabinet. While calling 911, after giving his address, he forgot what he was calling about and began to ask for pepperoni, mushrooms, sausage,... the responding officers were not amused. Alcohol was involved.
All those tax dollars and they would not bring him beer......no wonder people are down on cops these days.............

Been there.
At least he didn’t try and drive someplace to get beer.
LOL!!!

Actually, beer delivery should be a civil right!
Hey Brian, you’re no Ted Kennedy...
Did he get a DUI for calling while intoxicated? One wonders if you can get a DUI for driving on the information superhighway while drinking AKA surfing the net while under the influence.
And then you got mad when I brought the wrong brand!
I actually had that beer “piggy bank” but it had the little “shorty” cans in it... eight of them, IIRC.
Dehydration?
Hey, I’m not one to throw stones. Running out of beer is pretty serious. It happened to me once, but my therapist says I can expect a full recovery, occasional nightmares aside.
Guy calls 911 because he ran outta beer. LOL
It’s the worse feeling in the world, like getting dumped by a hot girl.
