Pa. man dials 911 on cellphone during drug deal, gets arrested, police say

(CBS/AP) SCRANTON, Pa. - If you are dealing drugs, it is probably best that you don't call 911.

That's what happened to Justin Kryzanowski, who accidentally dialed 911 on his cellphone during an alleged drug deal, leading to the conversation being recorded and his arrest shortly afterwards, Scranton police said.

911, thank you for calling!

Kryzanowski, 24, was arrested on Wednesday after police received a tip from dispatchers, who could hear a conversation about narcotics over an open line with a man named Rick, according to the Times-Tribune of Scranton.

Police tracked down Kryzanowski at his house, where he was reportedly talking with slow and slurred speech. They say they also found bottles of prescription drugs and syringes filled with Suboxone, an opioid dependence medication.

The number of mistaken 911 calls skyrocketed and have stayed up since the change. I clicked on the article to see if it was around here. It's not.

...and I think another one down in San Diego. On office phones where you have to dial 9 before dialing out, accidental 911 calls are probably real common. It happens like this: you hit 9, and then 1-7-1-4 or 1-2-1-3. But if you miss the 7 or the 2, you call 911. Happens at our office a couple times a month at least.
