Police Can't Find Man
Police received a late-night 911 call from a man who said he was afraid and in the back room of a bar, but they ultimately could not find him to help.
The man apparently sounded intoxicated and was ranting about about being afraid and that his boss was doing too much cocaine. At first he told police he was in the back room of the bar at 113 Beekman Avenue.
Police cleared out the entire bar but there was no back room.
Police called the caller who was "ranting again," according to the blotter report, and "told to stop talking and explain where he is so he could meet police."
The caller was reportedly uncooperative, now stating he was on the second floor of 111 Beekman, where there was no second floor.
Police checked the second floor of 113 Beekman, where a woman did not know of any problems.
Police called the man back numerous times but he did not answer. Officers sent to check the garage but no one was in garage.
