Police said the 48-year-old homeowner in Fort Walton Beach called for help several times.

When officers made contact with the man, he asked the bizarre question, according to a Okaloosa County arrest report.

The man pointed to the moon and asked, "Is that a half moon?" the officer said in the report.

"I asked the defendant if he dialed 911 to ask the question,” the officer said in the report. "The man said he did."

The homeowner also asked a question about whether a person who knocked on his door had been arrested.

The man is scheduled to appear in court in June to face misdemeanor charges.
