86-Year-Old Woman Jailed After Calling 911 20 Times In 30 Minutes

(Charlotte, N.C. -AP, May 25, 2005) ? 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.

One thing that strikes me is there were no complaints of excessive force used by the officer, in this story. If this is true, kudos to him.

I wonder if maybe she has some kind of mental disability though. Most older people don't call the police because Papa John's refuses to serve them. Along side that, most older people aren't going to attack someone, especially a cop, over pizza. Besides that, the Papa John's she was wanting pizza from refused to serve her because of prior bad acts against them, so she must have been crazy :laugh:

Sounds like my grandmother :ninja:

I run a Papa John's store and we refuse service to people almost on a daily basis. When someone writes a bad check and you call them on it, they're almost never pleased ;)
