    Man dials 911 over sandwich order

    East Hartford (AP) - A Connecticut man called 911 to complain that a deli had fouled up his sandwich order.

    The man can be heard on a recording of Wednesday's call complaining that he "specifically asked for little turkey, and little ham, a lot of cheese and a lot of mayonnaise" and the Grateful Deli in East Hartford got it wrong. Police declined to get involved, but a dispatcher advised the man not to buy the sandwich.

    Deli owner Tila Azinheira told WVIT-TV the man had placed a phone order for 14 sandwiches and the deli made them to his specifications.

    Azinheira says the man, whose identity has not been determined, called the deli on Thursday to apologize and to say he would remain a customer.
