We’ve had some big news in the Great Land this week – and we’ve had some shocking and unusual news, as well. But we also had at least one dumb, well, maybe not a crook as such, but a real nitwit. So, without further ado:
There’s dumb – and then there’s calling 911 to ask for a date dumb. Yes, really.
On 08/20/2024 at approximately 0400 hours, Alaska State Troopers responded to mile 99 Parks Hwy in Talkeetna after receiving a report where a male called 911 to ask for a job and attempt to ask the dispatcher on a date. Investigation revealed the phone number belonged to Christian Cordero, age 22 of Talkeetna. Cordero had a warrant for his arrest of the original charge of DVPO Violation. Troopers responded, located, and arrested Codero.
Hard up much? I mean, there are online dating sites and such, right? It’s hard to imagine being so sad and lonely as to hit on the 911…
