A 36-YEAR-OLD woman is facing a fourth-degree felony charge after “repeatedly” calling 911 — to report her parents for shutting off her cell phone plan.
Seloni Khetarpal, from Canton, Ohio, was arrested by Massillon police on Thursday after she made several calls to the Regional Emergency Dispatch Center.
On numerous occasions, she was told by contact handlers to only call for legitimate reasons, but believed that her parents ending their payments on her cell was a 911 issue.
The calls began on Thursday, February 13 and Ms Khetarpal demanded a police response.
However, when told not to use 911 for the complaint, she called again several hours later.
According to court documents, Khetarpal was “belligerent” and insisted that it was a legitimate reason to call cops.
She was arrested around 8.40pm and charged with disrupting public services.
Khetarpal appeared in court on Friday and her bond was set at $2,500.
She is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on February 27.
According to her website, she is originally from the UK — with her bio stating that she was a model for companies such as Abercrombie and Fitch and Miller Lite before coming a makeup artist and realtor.
It is not known why her parents decided to stop paying for her phone plan.
