Fat Finger Lands Man In Jail

A fat finger was blamed for the Dow Jones 1,000 point drop a week ago but this guy’s fickle finger has landed him in jail. A wrong number led police to make a drug bust at a motel in Wenatchee, Washington. The Wenatchee World reported a man staying at one room attempted to call someone staying in Room 119 — but dialed 911 instead.

Police arrived to see if there was a problem and discovered there was an arrest warrant for the man in Room 119.

They arrested the 29-year-old man and seized heroin and other drugs. A bail hearing is pending.
