OLDSMAR, FL -- A Pinellas County man was arrested for misusing 911 after authorities say he called to ask for a ride to a bar.
37-year-old Gregory Oras allegedly called 911 three times, according to the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office.
Oras made one call while he was leaving a bar, and reportedly told the operator that people were shooting at him and that he had a broken nose and bleeding ears.
It turned out he just wanted a ride to a different Oldsmar bar.
Oras was arrested, and reportedly kicked a deputy as he was being put into the patrol car. Deputies used a Taser to stun him.
He was charged with Misuse of 911 and Battery of a Law Enforcement Officer and was booked into the Pinellas County Jail.
