Man calls 911 over Obama, Xbox, screams, 'The Bible'

A 27-year-old man was arrested for misusing the 911 system after he decided to call because his neighbors had his video game controllers.

Around 9:30 p.m. May 15, after officers responded to the man’s initial call at an apartment complex on MacFarlan Avenue, they told him “not to use the emergency line again for this problem,” according to a Fort Walton Beach Police Department arrest report.

The neighbors then called 911 and said the man was screaming that he was going to blow everything up and was walking around with a stick, the report reads. An officer determined the man didn’t threaten anyone specifically and asked him to stay inside for the night. His Xbox controllers were returned to him.

Around 10:30 p.m., the man called 911 in regards to his Xbox controllers and President Barack Obama, saying he would only speak to a female or black officer, the report reads. The man was found walking up and down the parking lot yelling.

An elderly neighbor also had called police after she saw the man screaming, “The Bible, The Bible,” according to the report. He had approached her on her front porch that afternoon and “tried to touch her” and then approached her again that night while he was screaming. The woman became fearful.

Police concluded the man used 911 for a non-emergency situation after being warned, the report reads. He also “willingly, maliciously and repeatedly harassed his elderly neighbor in such a manner as to cause substantial emotional distress and serving no legitimate purpose.”

He was charged with misuse of 911 and stalking/harassment, both misdemeanors. He is due in court June 8.

This man doesn't need to go to jail. He needs to be committed.
