ENID, Okla. Mar 16, 2006 (AP)— Two men were jailed on arson complaints after one of them hit the wrong button on a cell phone, giving 911 dispatchers an account of a plot to set a vehicle on fire.

Enid police Capt. Jim Nivison said from that call, 911 dispatchers and a shift supervisor listened for nearly four hours to the two Enid natives as they drove across town, first planning to steal an acquaintance's car, then deciding to build an incendiary device out of a light bulb to burn the car up.

"It's all on tape; we've got the whole thing," Nivison said. "They made some pretty dumb statements. One of the males said. 'It's gonna burn, will they be able to get fingerprints?' and 'I've got the lighter, Dude. Let's go.' "

Johnny Ray Miller, 48, was arrested on complaints of third-degree arson and transporting an incendiary device. Robert A. Patterson, 24, was arrested on complaints of third-degree arson and manufacturing an incendiary device. Both also were jailed on conspiracy complaints.

A old trick when you find a torched car in the woods and want to prove insurance fraud is to call the former owner late at night and say " Man! You smoked your car". Before they figure out who their talking to they usually screw up and say " Yea! I did!" or " ---- did it for me!"

Lapi'che

Can you say KARMA??

Never realized criminals had 911 as their speed dial.

You would think they would have matured properly.

HA HA HA......fools

lol maybe he was trying to dial 411

Nice...

How could he have mistaken 911 with another cellphone number?
