Naperville, Illinois (The Weekly Vice) - Carly Houston, a 29-year-old Illinois woman astonished emergency responders when she dialed 911 to complain she "was trapped."
Trapped inside the jail at the Naperville police station that is.
According to Naperville police, Houston was arrested after she got into an early morning tussle with an area cab driver.
Investigators say a cab driver was attempting to ascertain the woman's desired destination when she reportedly "yelled, screamed, cursed and extended middle fingers at the cab driver" while threatening bodily harm.
When the driver dropped Houston off at a local gas station, she reportedly became disruptive and refused to pay the cab fare, attracting police attention and a subsequent arrest.
A police officer brought Houston to the police station and supplied her with a phone to make bail arrangements. Instead, Houston opted to call to 911.
Houston reached Naperville police dispatchers who say she pleaded for help because she was "trapped inside the detention facility."
Houston was booked into jail on charges of theft of labor or services, criminal trespass, disorderly conduct and making a false 911 report. She is scheduled to appear in court April 20.
(God help the judge)

To bad we can't put her and Kevin Roach in the same cell together.
She sounds fun.
LOL… that picture should be punishment enough. I think this woman may be just a little off of her rocker, but the charge of “making a false 911 report” is wrong. She didn’t lie after all… she was truly trapped.
Oh, Naperthrill. I am not surpirsed in the least bit.
It's a suburb with a lot of money and not enough depth.
They like to claim Chicago, but they're 40 miles away. Always makes me laugh.
Bless her heart...that's one troubled woman.
That 911 call is truely a classic. Very funny.
I am the manager of the taxi company involved, we deal with this shit all the time. This lady was nuts, lol.Oh well, I am sure there will be more....
michael, you have a taxi company? contact me at chicagotwilight@yahoo.com for some great info
Heh. As comically stupid as this was, I think it's not much worse than the officer who used his gun to shoot himself out a cell a week or two ago -- epic!
Would've been funny if the phone she'd called was only like, in an office in that building... here, our county jailhouse and police station are different floors of the same building. Whomever she'd called to just walk to her cell and give her a much-deserved wtf look!
