Callers to free tow number directed to porn line

CARLSBAD, NM Some New Year's Eve revelers in Carlsbad who had a little too much to drink got a surprise when they called a toll-free number for a free tow home.

Instead of assistance, they got instructions to call a second toll-free number that offered pornographic conversation.

AAA Texas and New Mexico acknowledged the mistake and blamed it on a typographical error. Spokesman Dan Roman apologized to anyone who called the number and wasn't able to take advantage of the tow offer.
