TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 13 (UPI) -- Police in Florida said they arrested a man who called 911 five times to report he wanted someone to have sex with him.

Tampa police said Basso made the calls Wednesday and operators hung up on him each time, the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Times reported Friday.

Basso, who was arrested 15 minutes after his last 911 call, told officers he called 911 because it was the only number he knew that was free while his cell phone was out of minutes.

He was charged with making a false 911 call and taken to Hillsborough County Jail.
