“He’s upset so he keeps calling 911,” Deputy Zalva said, trying to hide a smile. “So I have to give him a call to tell him to stop calling about his weed.”

Less than an hour later, the deputy provided an update.

“He started to freak out a little bit on the phone and hung up on me shortly after,” Zalva said.
