(CNN) Comedian Ahmed Ahmed is always working on new material for his act, but a 911 call is not his usual method for getting a laugh.

An audience member at one of his recent shows called 911 to complain about one of his jokes.

Ahmed performed at Off The Hook Comedy Club in Naples, Florida on May 12. The following day, a man who said he attended the show called 911 and complained about when Ahmed asked the audience who was from the Middle East.

"And a whole bunch of people raised their hand," the caller said, according to a 911 call released by the Collier County Sheriff's Office. "And he said where are you from? I'm from Iraq, I'm from Iran. I'm from Pakistan. I'm from here, I'm from there. He said, 'That's great. We could organize our own little terrorist organization.'"

Ahmed said that the caller misquoted him.
