The 62-year-old man called the Campbell County Sheriff’s Office on Thursday to ask why he hadn’t been arrested after deputies raided his house the previous day.
Asked why he should be arrested, the man said meth use, Undersheriff Quentin Reynolds said.
The man also told a dispatcher 10 young men were following him.
