Florida man calls 911 after comedian makes Middle East joke

One audience member at a Florida standup comedy show couldn’t take a joke.

Comedian Ahmed Ahmed, who is of Egyptian descent, was performing at the Off The Hook Comedy Club in Naples, Fla., on Saturday when he made a joke about Islamic terrorism, prompting someone in the crowd to phone 911.


"Clap if you're from the Middle East," Ahmed said, according to a clip posted on the club's Facebook page. "All right. We got a handful of us in in here, nice. But, hey, it only takes one of us ... to tell a joke."
