PANAMA CITY, Fla. -- A woman seeking to buy crack cocaine called the wrong numbers, but still tried to buy the drug from people she had mistakenly called, police said.
Tara Jo Curtis, 29, was arrested Saturday at the No Name Lounge and released Sunday from the Bay County Jail under a $10,000 bond.
Someone reported the wrong number calls and investigators arranged a controlled sale of fake crack, police said.
An undercover officer sold Curtis a couple of grams of imitation cocaine for $100 and during the transaction she asked if he had a small sample and something she could use to test it, according to a police report.
Curtis has no telephone listing in Panama City and could not be reached for comment Monday. Court records did not indicate whether she has a lawyer.
