JACKSONVILLE, FL -- He was getting pretty hard into the alcohol, so his family took measures to stop him from drinking.

According to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, it happened last night around midnight at the Confederate Point home of Robert Edward Cook.

The call to 911 was reference on the police report as a "drunken dispute."

The officer got to the house to find out what was going on.

The report indicates that, "due to the drunken state of the defendant," his family hid his liquor.

After double checking to make sure that it was a 911 call that got him there, the officer arrested Cook, 58, for making a false 911 call.
