He said the pie was burned, but stopped called the pizza place when employees said they were calling police.

Employees of a pizza place in Cumming had enough of foul-mouthed customer who later refused to pay for his pie, and called police.

The harassing phone calls continued from 6 to 9:30 p.m. on Dec. 28, according to the Cumming Police Department incident report.

An employee of the Papa John's at 535 Canton Road, Suite C, told police she received a call from an unidentified man who "was rude to the manager when he tried to put him on hold and then started cussing him out when he told the caller how long it would take to deliver the pizza," an officer wrote in the report.

"The manager informed the caller that they would not deliver to him due to his verbal abuse," the report continues. "The subject called the store several times after this and continued to cuss at the employees."

At 8:30 p.m., Papa John's got a call from another man who said he was at an Osprey Court home and ordered a pizza.

"When their driver made the delivery the subjects there gave him a hard time and refused to pay for the pizza. He eventually received payment and returned to the store," the report says.

After the delivery, Papa John's started receiving calls from the first caller, again cussing at them, and saying he had received a burnt pizza. The man said he was at the same Osprey Court home as the man who had ordered the pizza.
