Man arrested for calling police to talk about Hitler
A man in Florida was arrested because he used the emergency phone service to save himself from boredom.
A couple of his calls focused on Hitler and the Jews, according to NewsDaytonaBeach.com.
One officer said he went to Gilman's home in order to get him to stop calling 911, according to the Palm Beach Post.
When the officer asked Gilman what he was doing, the suspect allegedly said he was “talking to your dispatcher because I’m bored.”
