[March 19, 2010]  SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) -- Police in Syracuse said a woman who was annoyed that a police car was blocking her own car first called 911 and then vandalized the squad car.

Police said the woman called 911 Saturday to report the "emergency" -- that a patrol car was blocking her car. They said she then keyed the patrol car because they didn't move it quickly enough.

Officers were in the area to investigate a harassment complaint. They said the woman approached them and insisted they move their cruiser. They told her to wait.

Police said the woman approached them again and demanded they move the car, using profanity.

Witnesses said she then used her keys to vandalize the car.

Police found gouges on the car and the woman was charged with criminal mischief.
