A Northern Ontario woman was charged with mischief on Tuesday after police say she wouldn't stop calling 911 to ask them to pick her up some smokes.

Police say that Moira Williams, 67, of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., had been drinking and ran out of cigarettes when she repeatedly called the emergency line to ask police to go to the store and buy her some.

Williams was warned several times to stop calling unless she had an emergency, police said. By 3:15 a.m., police drove to her home and arrested her.

She is to appear in court April 12.
