Drug deal text sent to police by mistake

A man who thought he was asking a friend about a drug deal instead sent a text message to the UK police and was arrested, authorities say. Metro reports.

"Joshua Wayne Cadle, 19, allegedly sent the message on Wednesday, to a phone number that used to belong to an unidentified friend. The number is now held by the State Police, Trooper B.H. Moore said on Thursday.

'He text messaged that and asked his friend if he wanted to buy some reefer,' Moore said. "

Interesting, a same story was reported last year, in the US.
