tough granny *lol*

someone at the shop called her a "crazy old coot,"

Guess she proved it! LOL!

Please update the title to "Woman Calls 911 With Pizza Complaint". I ended up changing the article source, and forgot to change the headline.

"Densmore also is charged with resisting a public officer and two counts of misusing the 911 system, jail records show."

2 counts? wouldn't it be 19 or 20 counts if she called 20 times? Or do you get 18 warnings for dialing 911 incorrectly.

Granny has alzheimer's and needs serious help.

[Houmatt]

Finally! Some common sense has prevailed here.

And no, I am not being sarcastic.

911 is for emergencies. As in only. You don't call 911 because somebody called you a name. You don't call because you cannot control your daughter. You don't call because you cannot find an address. You call when somebody's life is on the line. And that's it.

[Leg Olam]

Must be a 'secret ingredient' in the pizza.

[Publius6961]

YES!

It's unusual for someone to face charges for nonemergency calls, Giannini said.

Well, it shouldn't be.
We can't continue to cater to the least common denominator, slowly drifting to "moron" level.

What is the effect on life threatening real emergencies?

What is the current level of nuisance inappropriate calls to 911 these days?

[Josh in PA]

Sounds like something Edna on Michael Medved would do.

first the cheesburger lady and now this. . .

and yesterday I remember reading something about a lady senator ( I believe ) who used to call 911 to get directions to meetings.

some people are morons.
vote to institute breeding tests !

[Allegra]

I wonder if the pizza parlor (do people really call them that?) would deliver to the jail?

The sweet old dear should have given that a try.

[Constitution Day]

What an idiot. She needs to have her phone disconnected.

BTW: She's probably a hit woman for the Geritol Mafia.

People make some weird calls. This was supposedly a real 911 call:

"Caller: "I'm scared, I just got a Ouija board for my birthday, and now there's writing on my wall and I can't get it off ... this thing is going back to K-Mart first thing in the morning!"

But seriously, this is a problem. I hope the following statistic is not true:

"At some agencies--usually the very large, urban cities--up to 80% of 911 calls on non-emergencies."

I got this from http://www.911dispatch.com/information/brief_book.html

If you haven't heard this call you have to listen.

It's a woman complaining to 9/11 about her hamburgers being made wrong.

Snopes said they can't determine if it's real, but it is a hoot!

86 years old? She might need to move in with her family, because I think she could have Alzheimer's or dementia. Or both : (

It would be kind of them to take her to a hospital, and find out if she's okay "upstairs".

[avg_freeper]

How many cats did she have in her home?

A somewhat ditsy dozen or a full out nutbar hundred? That's the real unit of measure for crazy old women.

[Eastbound]

I'd hate to be the security guard who tries to undress her at the airport.
