Authorities
in Florida arrested a man who allegedly called 911 seven times and
claimed he was being kidnapped by Checker Cab. Deputies said Paul
Coombs, 38, called 911 seven times in less than hour January 8th and
claimed he was being kidnapped when the driver took him back to the
Checker Cab depot in Fort Pierce. The driver said he tried to take
Coombs home, but the man was unable to give a specific address, smelled
strongly of booze and rambled incoherently during the ride. Coombs was
told to stop calling 911, but he allegedly said he had a checkbook and
didn’t care about going to jail. He was arrested on a misdemeanor charge
of misusing the 911 system.
