Another Joe!
This Joe calls 911 to complain about traffic.
Alexandria - We have the tape of a 911 call made by John McCain's brother earlier this week.
He called the police emergency line because he was angry he was stuck in traffic.
The 911 call came into the City of Alexandria on Oct. 21st That's creating some buzz because it appears to come from Joe McCain, John McCain's brother.
Operator: 911 state your emergency
Caller: It's not an emergency but do you know why on one side at the damn drawbridge of 95traffic is stopped for 15 minutes and yet traffic's coming the other way?
Operator: Sir, are you calling 911 to complain about traffic? (pause)
Caller: "(Expletive) you." (caller hangs up)
The complaint call about traffic on the Wilson Bridge, outrageous enough that the 911 operator called back.
The voicemail on the other end, appears to belong to Joe McCain, brother of presidential candidate, John McCain.
"Hi this is Joe McCain I can't take this message now because I'm involved in a very (inaudible) important political project... I hope on Nov. 4th we have elected John."
"I think it's horrible I can't believe somebody would tie up valuable resources to complain about traffic," said District resident Nancy Case.
"It seems stupid, my name can be tagged to this, why would I hose my brother, why would I do it," said District resident Rob Case.
But that wasn't all. McCain apparently called 911 again, to complain about the message the operator just left him, warning him such use of 911 is criminal.
Appears to be Joe McCain: Somebody gave me this riot act about the violation of police.
Operator: Did you just call 911 in reference to this?
Appears to be Joe McCain: Yeah.
Operator: 911 is to be used for emergencies only not just because you're sitting in traffic.
"The future president, possible president whatever, possible president, can't control what someone does but this gentleman should be fined or something should happen to him," said tourist Suzanna Rey.
The McCain campaign is not ready to comment just yet on this issue.
We also tried reaching Joe McCain but were unable to reach him.
