Ooops Wrong Number...Woman Calls Detective To Buy Meth


Do you almost feel sorry for her?......

A woman was arrested after police said she dialed a wrong number and told a police detective that she wanted to buy drugs.Detective Phil Stewart said he was sleeping last Thursday morning when he got a call on his cell phone from Tammy Banks, 41, of Sedalia.

The call was a wrong number, but Stewart was suspicious, so he said her friend wasn't around and then asked the caller what she needed. "That's when she told me she wanted half a gram of meth," Stewart told KMBC's Marcus Moore.Stewart, who has been a drug enforcement officer for six years and has executed about 250 warrants, agreed to help.

"I wish they were all that easy -- it would make our job a lot easier, that's for sure," Egan said.Banks was charged with attempt to posses a controlled substance. She is being held on a $5,000 bond.
