CANDOR, N.Y. (AP) — A man who police claim called 911 because he wanted to see a ”hot chick” is cooling his heels in the county jail. Authorities said Tyler Engelhard, 21, told a dispatcher his parents ’should be in jail’ and that police would ‘find out why.’
A sheriff’s patrol rushed to Engelhard’s Candor home, believing a crime might be imminent.
When deputies arrived, the man claimed he had called as a joke and ”wanted to see a hot chick.”
The deputies weren’t amused. Engelhard was charged with falsely reporting an incident and sent to the Tioga County Jail.
He’s been ordered to appear in town court next month.
