Man picks wrong spot when nature calls (AP) Updated: 2006-08-14 19:47
CHARLESTON, W.Va. - Sometimes when nature calls, there's no time to delay,
but a Kentucky man sure picked the wrong spot for a pit stop.
Michael Ray Hunter, 37, found out Wednesday night that the parking lot of the
West Virginia State Police headquarters in South Charleston isn't the right
spot.
Trooper J.S. Crane just happened to be walking nearby as Hunter was relieving
himself.
As Crane approached, he smelled alcohol. That discovery led Crane to the
truck where Hunter's friend, James Alan Richardson, 40, was checking phone
messages.
During a search of the pickup, Crane and another trooper found a marijuana
pipe and pills for which Richardson had no prescription.
Both men were arrested for public intoxication. Hunter also is charged with
indecent exposure and Richardson is charged with possessing controlled
substances.
