AUTHORITIES said a Michigan man confessed he was drunk and bored when he called 911 more than 100 times in the span of about a month.
The Traverse City Record-Eagle reported the 25-year-old from the Grand Traverse County community of Kingsley in northern Michigan, United States, was arrested Thursday evening at his mobile home.
Sheriff’s deputies said they found about a half-dozen phones used to call 911 since January and a hand-held police scanner.
Captain Randy Fewless said the man didn’t say anything until his last call, but started “upping the ante” by “laboring his breathing” in successive calls when the police didn’t arrive at his home.
On the Thursday call, investigators said the man said he’d been hurt and needed help.
