"Authorities have arrested an alleged 911 cell phone caller who was believed to have made more than 27,000 emergency calls, overwhelming California Highway Patrol and Hayward 911 systems. The 911 calls started flooding in last May. The caller responded to emergency operators with bodily noises, muttering and pressing beep tones." --clip-- More at http://www.ktvu.com/news/15310750/detail.html This is the best (i.e. the worst) part: "When asked why he made the calls, he replied: "Because it's free.""
