SIDNEY, Ohio
(AP) - Authorities in Ohio
say a pocket-dialing prowler got himself arrested after his cellphone turned
informant. Twice.
Investigators say an emergency
operator traced an accidental 911 call on Tuesday night to a home in Sidney, about 60 miles northwest of Columbus.
Shelby County sheriff's deputies dispatched to
check on the house found a window forced open. They arrested Douglas Wolaver,
of Piqua,
inside.
The sheriff's office says Wolaver
was found in a bathroom after his phone's low-battery alert led deputies to his
hiding place.
Wolaver is charged with breaking and
entering. A phone listing for him was disconnected.
