Dumb Move #1: Calvin Hoover, pictured, made an angry 911 call early Tuesday morning from a Salem, OR bar parking lot to report someone broke into his truck, stole his jacket, $400 in cash and about an ounce of marijuana, according to police.
Dumb Move #2: Hoover made a second 911 call about an hour later, police say. He was really angry that the cops hadn't yet shown up to help him. The dispatcher had a little trouble understanding the "victim" this time, however, because Hoover had to stop several times during the call to vomit.Dumb Move #3: When the cops did in fact catch up to Hoover, the 21-year-old allegedly told them he was looking for the guys that stole his weed.
He was arrested for DUI.
The Salem police also took the time to school Hoover on dumb moves. Officers advised him that tipping them off about the marijuana was probably a stupid idea. If they had caught him with it, he would also have been charged with possession.
talk about a complete idoit that called cops for that
