In an apparent attempt to mislead officers, a woman called 911 sending a police car away from her location so she could drive home intoxicated, police said Thursday.
Hayley Oates reported to 911 dispatchers that a woman was being assaulted at a bar in northern New Jersey. Oats said the assailant was in a blue truck and quickly ended the call, according to a police statement.
Police investigated the report, but found no evidence of assault or witnesses. Later security cameras confirmed that no assault had occured.
Oates reportedly posted to social media:
"lmao.. 2 mins later the cop peals out.. silly piggies tricks r for u." following the false report.
Police claim that Oates intentionally called 911 so she and her companion could drive home intoxicated undetected.
According to NJ.com, detectives were tipped off that the call was a false report and later found the social media post that lead them to Oates.
She was charged with filing false reports to law enforcement and creating a false public alarm, police said.
