You are supposed to call 911, you know, / emergency, everybody knows that. Yes. But one man in Tampa, who may have taken this a little  too literally 1 and quite frankly 2, actually.

Yeah, police say he became a little too chatty with the 911 operator, reporter Jeff / Butera from our affiliate 3 WFTS, got hold of the tape and here he is to prove it.

“I have such dreams and desires, I wanna tell you about it`````”




There are people you can call if you need a friend. But Tampa police say Joshua Basso's problem Wednesday was, he had run out of cell phone minutes, so he called the only number he knew wouldn’t cost him anything.

Yeah, that number, we didn’t dare push “send” when we shot this video, but / police say he did.

Operator “Tampa police, 911. What’s your emergency?”

Basso “What’s up?”

Basso made it clearly on the phone, he wanted the operator to come to his house in Tampa. She played / along.

Basso “You gonna come and see me?”

Operator “Yeah, give me your address.”

Basso “Yeah?”

Operator “ What’s your address?”

Basso “You gonna come and see me?”

Operator “ Where are you?”

Then things with Basso got weirder 4.

Basso “What are you gonna do when you come here?”

Operator “Huh?”

Basso “Huh? Are you gonna pull down your pants?”

Well, police say Basso was in his bathroom at the house. He asked the operator if she had a nice breast, although his language was dirtier than that.

Operator “You tell me where you are and maybe I can show you”

Basso “Huh?”

Operator “tell me where you are and maybe I can show you”

Basso “ You got a nice butt 5, huh?”

Operator “ You tell me your name maybe we can talk more. But if you don’t tell me your name I’m hanging up”

Oh my goodness!

Sometimes you just get lonely.

No, there is no excuse for that. All right, so here is what happened, folks. When the officer responded to Basso’s home, he asked for the cell phone, but Basso refused to turn it over. Well, the officer had a little trick up his sleeve; he actually called the number that made the 911 calls. And the phone began to ring in Basso’s front pocket. Yeah, he was arrested and charged with making a false 911 call.
