Florida Woman Who Called 911 for Sex Arrested Again
This time she tried to report a theft.

A 59-year-old Florida woman found herself behind bars for the second time in recent months after deputies in Charlotte County say she misused the 911 system.
Maria Montanez-Colon made national headlines back in February when she called 911 hoping to get a date with a police officer, NBC reported. She offered to have sex with the man, telling the 911 operator it had been years since she performed the act.
Montanez-Colon’s latest arrest came after she called 911 to report a theft. The problem with that, the Sun-Sentinel reported, is that “theft” was well known to officers and has been deemed a civil matter between the woman and her stepson.

Montanez-Colon was charged with misuse of 911, according to Charlotte County Jail records. She was released on her own recognizance. She’s been arrested in Charlotte County seven other times on charges ranging from that sexy 911 call and disorderly conduct to trespassing.
Montanez-Colon isn’t the only Floridian who has made headlines this year related to unusual 911 calls. Collier County’s Judes Exantus called to report a deputy for being slow writing a ticket. And, then there was Tampa’s Keith Lukas who went to jail after placing more than 3,000 calls to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.
