PONTOTOC, Miss. (AP) -- A 5-year-old home from school with the
chicken pox called 911 five times and got his pot-smoking mother
busted.
	``The boy was so proud of himself,'' Sheriff Randy Roberts said
Thursday. ``He was tickled to death at what he'd done.''
	Authorities got five emergency calls in nine minutes on
Wednesday afternoon from the child's home. The caller hung up the
first three times, but the 911 system showed where the call came
from.
	``Then on the fourth call the dispatcher told him that a car was
being sent out to check on him and he said, `Don't send the law,'''
Roberts said. ``Then he called a fifth time and hung up again.''
	Deputies said they arrived at the house and found the woman
smoking marijuana. Her son showed them where to find a small amount
of the drug hidden under a couch, police said.
	The mother, whose name wasn't released, faced misdemeanor drug
charges. The child was being cared for by relatives.
