Woman calls 911 with pizza complaint

[Muscletang]

May 25, 2005 (CHARLOTTE, N.C.) — An 86-year-old woman was jailed after police said she called 911 dispatchers 20 times in a little more than a half-hour all to complain that a pizza parlor wouldn't deliver. Dorothy Densmore was charged with misusing the 911 system, a jail spokeswoman said.

She told dispatchers Sunday that a local pizza shop refused to deliver a pie to her south Charlotte apartment, said Officer Mandy Giannini. She also complained that someone at the shop called her a "crazy old coot," Giannini said.

Densmore wanted them arrested. Instead, police came to arrest her, and she resisted, Giannini said.

It's unusual for someone to face charges for nonemergency calls, Giannini said. But on Sunday, Densmore kept calling 911, even after she was told to stop, Giannini said.

When an officer arrived at her apartment, the 5-foot-tall, 98-pound woman attacked him, Giannini said. Densmore scratched him, kicked and bit his hand, she said.

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

They were playing calls like that a few weeks ago on the Jim Rome Show. That's probably one of them.

It's amazing what people will do.

I heard about this a week ago. I guess it was only a few days ago, but it feels like a week. I live in NC. On the news they played the audio of one of her conversations, something like, "They called me a crazy old coot, those people in the mama papas".

She was referring to papa johns.

she called a pizza place to have a pie delivered?

It's funny that she got arrested. A judge should order her to live in a nursing home.
