The old saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words,” really does apply here. I suppose it takes all kinds to make the world go ’round. What’s really “scary” is, he probably has a girlfriend. I’m sure she’s a real “winner.” TGO

OLDSMAR, Fla. – Authorities say a Florida man who called 911 claiming he’d been beaten and shot at was hoping the tale would get him a ride to a bar. Instead, 37-year-old Gregory J. Oras is facing charges of misusing the 911 system and battery of a law enforcement officer.
An arrest report says Oras called 911 three times before his arrest early Tuesday in Oldsmar, northwest of Tampa. He told the dispatcher he had a broken nose and bleeding ears, and claimed people were shooting at him.
Authorities say he was actually looking for a ride to another bar.
The report also says Oras kicked a Pinellas County sheriff’s deputy in the knees and a Taser was used to subdue him.
Online records show he is being held at the Pinellas County Jail but don’t indicate whether he has an attorney.
