Hello 911, my wife stole my cocaine

ALLIANCE, Ohio -- Police say a northeast Ohio man called 911 to report that his wife stole his cocaine and was then arrested himself.

The Review newspaper in Alliance reports officers responding to the Wednesday night call discovered the man had a marijuana pipe and was wanted himself on a warrant for failing to pay hundreds of dollars in costs in an earlier court case.

The caller, 39-year-old Robert D. Collins of Alliance, was charged with two misdemeanor counts alleging improper use of the 911 system and possession of drug paraphernalia.

The Repository in nearby Canton reports Collins' jail records didn't indicate whether police located the reportedly stolen cocaine or his wife.
