Then he called 911 again and said Mayor Pam Iorio should be executed.

Police arrested the 37-year-old Tampa man Sunday night at his home, 506 Lincoln Ave.

He was charged with corruption by threat against a public servant and misuse of the 911 system.

Tucholski told police he made the calls after a domestic dispute and that he didn't intend to harm officers or the mayor, a criminal arrest affidavit states.

Tucholski remained in Orient Road Jail today. His bail was set at $2,500.
