ZEPHYRHILLS (AP) – Pasco County authorities say a 40-year-old Zephyrhills man has been arrested for calling 911 to complain about a convenience store clerk.

According to jail records, Armando Merino is charged with disorderly conduct. He has been released on bond.

Officials said a convenience store clerk called 911 early Saturday morning and told the dispatcher that a customer was threatening her because she would not sell him any more beer.

Minutes later, Merino called 911 and was “abusive” to the dispatcher.
