Woman arrested after inexplicably calling 911 over and over, telling police to ‘go to hell’
Washington Post ^ | 8/4/2016 | Kristine Guerra

The first 911 call came shortly before midnight Monday.

Police found the caller, 54-year-old Deborah Harris, sitting by a bus bench in West Palm Beach, Fla.

Harris couldn’t explain why she’d called 911, according to a police report. But she did curse at the responding officer and tell him to “go to hell,” the report states.

The officer left without further incident, but the calls from Harris didn’t stop: Within the next half-hour, she dialed 911 14 more times, using profanity each time and never once giving a reason for the calls, the report states.

Shortly after 12:30 a.m. Tuesday, the same officer responded and warned Harris that she would go to jail if she placed any more non-emergency calls to 911, the report states.

Harris called again an hour later.

Police found her inside O’Shea’s Irish Pub and arrested her.

Harris was charged with misusing the 911 system, a first-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in prison and a $1,000 fine. The Office of the State Attorney in Palm Beach County told the Palm Beach Post that Harris has been arrested for similar charges in the past, though a spokeswoman told The Washington Post that there’s no record of any conviction.

Thank you for the laughs! The article was pretty factual but combined on finding her in an Irish pub plus the mug shot....
Priceless....

To be fair, her calling 911 fills a basic human need - that of human contact...

All she needs in her mouth is a corn cob pipe, and she’s Popeye.
