SHELBY — A man who told police marijuana and liquor were stolen from his home was arrested Wednesday after he repeatedly called 911 and cussed at a dispatcher.

Patrick Darnell Hunt, 39, told police he returned home after spending four days in jail to find his house broken into. Among the items Hunt told police were stolen included three TVs and three DVD players as well as a half-pound of marijuana and white liquor.

Officer D.P. Halloran wrote in his report that someone cut Hunt’s screen door, pulled a piece of wood over a door window and unlocked the back door to gain entry to Hunt’s Legrand Street home.

According to police documents, Halloran responded to the home shortly after the break-in was reported Wednesday at 6:42 p.m.

Within an hour, Hunt was in handcuffs.
