Last week, a Tampa man, 29 year old Joshua Basso, was arrested for repeatedly calling 911 asking for sex. Basso made sexual comments to the 911 dispatcher and requested to come to her home. The dispatcher hung up but Basso called back four additional times.
Basso was arrested 15 minutes later and charged with making a false 911 call. He allegedly told officers that he did not realize he would get in trouble for calling 911 and claimed it was the only number he could dial after he ran out of cell phone minutes.
Basso is presently being held without bond. It appears that he has been arrested for theft and other crimes dating back to 2001.
