(AP) Police said a 20-year-old man called 911 and put the dispatcher on hold to make a drug deal. Police said man made the call on Saturday night to report that two men with guns were watching him and hung up. The dispatcher called him back, and during the call the man asked the dispatcher to hold on and made a drug deal.
A voice can be heard on the recording saying, “What you need? A 10-pack? A 10-pack, alright.” A 10-pack is slang for a bundle of heroin.
The dispatcher called police, who saw the man crossing a street and found crack cocaine in his pants. The man, who didn’t have identification, was arrested and taken to jail.
A message seeking comment was left Tuesday with a police spokesman.

Inside the car, officers found two men with their faces blackened with permanent marker.

CAPE HAZE, Fla. – Authorities said they arrested a man who apparently forgot to fill up when he was robbing a gas station. The Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office said a 23-year-old man used a Bowie knife to rob a Cape Haze gas station early Sunday. Deputies said the man pulled the 12-inch blade and demanded money. But when he left, a customer followed him and called 911.
While deputies were looking for signs of the robber, a newspaper carrier told them that a man in a car matching the one from the robbery had run out of gas nearby.
The man was arrested several hours after the robbery and charged with robbery with a weapon and loitering/prowling. He was released Monday on $10,500 bail.
