Police Find Meth Lab After Man Misdials ESCATAWPA, Miss. (AP) -- A man trying to call a news station to complain about not getting a FEMA trailer after Hurricane Katrina accidentally dialed 911 and was charged with making methamphetamine after police arrived, authorities said.
Curtiss Randall Coleman was trying to get the number for Biloxi's WLOX-TV on Wednesday just before the 6 p.m. newscast, investigators said. He misdialed when trying to reach directory information and called 911 instead of 411.
When he hung up on the emergency dispatcher, the Jackson County Sheriff's Department was sent to the home to see if anyone was in need of assistance.
Deputies said that when they arrived at Coleman's house, no one answered the door. Officers broke in and allegedly found a methamphetamine lab.
Coleman, 53, and four others were arrested, including Coleman's son, Christopher, 30. A fifth suspect remains at large.
"It was a calamity of errors on Mr. Coleman's part," said Sgt. Curtis Spears, commander of the Narcotics Task Force of Jackson County.
Along with the Colemans, narcotics agents also arrested Erin Paula Oliver, 35, of Moss Point, and Leslie Renee McMahon, 27, of Ocean Springs. All four were charged with conspiracy to manufacture meth.
A person who answered the phone at the Jackson County jail declined to say whether Coleman and the others had attorneys.

What a fuck ass. He should have just answered the door and informed them of the mistake. Anyone cooking up meth can't be too smart in the first place.

We need new phones that give you an "are you sure?" popup box when 911 id dialed. I bet they'd sell like hotcakes if you advertised them in High Times. I'm applying for the patent Monday morning.

My old cellphone did that. It threw me off the one time I had to call 911 on it because I thought that it wasn't going through. I didn't see that you had to press yes at the prompt.
