Chicago Teen Arrested After Calling 911 And Asking “Where The Hoes At?”

 CHICAGO – A Chicago teenager has been reportedly arrested after allegedly calling 911 and asking the dispatcher “where the hoes at?”
18 Year old Dennis Higgins dialed 911 on his cellphone Saturday night and asked the CPD dispatcher “Where the hoes at?” At which point, the dispatcher told Higgins that they only respond to emergency calls, not jokes. Higgins then reportedly responded by telling the dispatcher that this, was, indeed an emergency, and that he urgently needed a hoe to give him “head”.
Authorities immediately tracked down his location and arrested Dennis for disorderly conduct. According to police, upon being arrested, Dennis still asked the officers “so y’all ain’t gonna tell me where the hoes at?”
“Not very uncommon” says officer Patricia Lin, “People prank call us all the time. The only difference now is that this guy didn’t even bother calling through private or a pay phone. I guess he genuinely wanted to know where the hoes were at; They’re everywhere” finished Lin.
“I heard whenever you need help, just call the police, and that’s what I did. But all they did was come to my crib and arrest me, I guess all the hoes in jail” Dennis Higgins told reporters after being arrested.
Dennis Higgins can face up to a year in jail and be fined up to $1,000. For more updates and stories straight to your email, subscribe to huzlers.com

Venezuela is close to collapse:

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — Venezuelan cities cleaned up from a night of looting and fiery protests Wednesday as government offices closed their doors for the rest of the week in the face of a worsening energy crisis that is causing daily blackouts.

The socialist administration began imposing a four-hour daily blackout around the country this week to save power. Then on Tuesday, President Nicolas Maduro announced that millions of officials will now work only Monday and Tuesday.

Angry residents in darkened towns around the country took to the streets Tuesday night, setting up flaming barricades and raiding shops for bread and other scarce food.

On Wednesday, hundreds of police fanned out around the western city of Maracaibo after a night of looting on darkened streets. Venezuela is among the world's most violent countries, and crime generally spikes here when the lights go out.

The administration says the water level behind the nation's largest dam has fallen to near its minimum operating level because of a severe drought. Experts say lack of planning and maintenance is also to blame.

Caracas is being spared from the rolling blackouts, and has not seen violent protests. Some here complain that the country is starting to resemble the dystopian series "The Hunger Games," in which districts suffer for the benefit of the heartless capital city...


So obviously the thing to do is accelerate that collapse by hiking the minimum wage:

Venezuela's president is ordering a 30 percent increase in the minimum wage, the latest move by the socialist government to grapple with high inflation and economic stagnation.

The boost announced Saturday night by President Nicolas Maduro comes after a 25 percent increase on March 1.

The new increase is effective Sunday, which is International Labor Day, and will push the minimum wage to 15,051 bolivars a month. That is about $1,500 at the official exchange rate, but is around $50 at the current black market rate, which largely sets prices of goods for Venezuelans.

Venezuela's oil export-dependent economy shrank 5.7 percent last year, shortages of basic goods multiplied and prices soared....
