Volusia County authorities want to make it clear that 911 is for emergencies only.

Two people were arrested Sunday for making calls that the Sheriff's Office said weren't quite of an emergency nature. The two calls were not related.

Authorities said 44-year-old Cynthia Colson of Deltona called 911 several times after she wasn't satisfied with the length of her nails after a manicure.

Deputies said Colson called 911 at least four times: twice after her original 911 call asking when deputies would arrive and a fourth time when the deputy was at the store trying to settle the dispute over payment.

Colston got in a fight with the nail technician and was slightly hurt, the Sheriff's Office said.

The deputy then arrested Colston.

Lawrence Gauthier, 61, was also arrested Sunday.

Deputies said Gauthier, who goes by Gator, has a history of using 911 as if it was his personal request hotline.

The Sheriff's Office said Gauthier has called them 16 times since November requesting business cards and checking up on deputies.
