ONTARIO, Ohio -- What police thought to be a prank call turned out to be a woman trying to purchase drugs, reported NewsChannel5's Jonathan Costen.
According to Ontario police, 27-year-old Amy Logue, of Ashland, was arrested after calling police several times looking for crack cocaine.Logue called the police station three times trying to arrange the drug deal."It's the worst case of a misdialed phone number I've ever seen," said Rob Griefenstine, of the Ontario police.Initially, the drug buy was supposed to take place at a vacant gas station, but she called the police and asked them to meet her at the McDonald's nearby because she didn't want to seem too obvious or suspicious."We could eliminate a lot of other vehicles we would suspect if she pulled into a closed facility, but her knowing that as well, she tried to avoid the police," said Griefenstine.Police arrested Logue and charged her with a felony for trying to buy drugs.
