A Bremerton man dating a wrong number called a Bremerton woman who kept him on the line for two hours to allow authorities to trace the long distance call. Augusta police and telephone workers coordinated to rescue him after he said he planned to kill himself. The caller described being recently from a drug center and having used drugs, then becoming more coherent as the call continued. He intended to reach his sister in Bremerton.
