Police: FL man reported 'murder' to 911 to get out of ticket MELBOURNE, FL (WESH/CNN) – Florida police say a man called 911 to report a possible murder in progress as he was being pulled over. Dispatchers on the 911 lines took a frantic phone call. “There is a murder that's going to happen, I swear, on Wingate, on Wingate, on Wingate and Wickham. No, on Wingate and Hollywood. Definitely someone going to get shot. Please, please, Wingate and Hollywood. Please,” the man said. When the line went dead, every available officer went to that intersection in West Melbourne, FL. The caller called back. “I swear, there’s going to be a murder any second. There’s a man and a gun. Please,” the caller said. Again, the caller hung up. Dispatchers looked for any information they could get and got the caller’s name. That name was Julius Lupowitz, and it just so happened that at that same moment, Lupowitz was getting a speeding ticket up the street from the reported intersection. Police believe that while the officer’s back was turned, Lupowitz made the phony murder phone calls. . . . . Now, instead of a $200 traffic ticket, Lupowitz faces a felony charge that carries a maximum five-year prison term. ---------------- Florida.
I know we're slipping. But we did have the couple having sex on the beach in broad daylight this past Sunday. So maybe that evens things out
But you also had a dude blowing another dude on a boat at a nude beach... http://gawker.com/nude-beach-blow-job-jet-ski-fight-leads-to-wife-s-death-1608253016
What angers me is that somewhere, at that exact moment, a real murder could have been taking place, and the police were busy tracking down this asshole's phony call.
