A Kansas man who was allegedly highly intoxicated was found by authorities while in the middle of attempting to have sex with an automobile on Tuesday.
On May 1 a 24-year-old man whose identity has not been disclosed was reportedly very drunk and also suspected of being under the influence of narcotics when he climbed beneath a vehicle and tried to insert his penis into the tailpipe.
When officers from the Newton Police Department arrived several of them tried to ask the man to stop, but he allegedly behaved in a manner suggesting that he did not realize anyone else was present and he continued attempting to insert his privates into the pipe. After their failed attempts to reason with the man police made the decision to employ the use of a taser to subdue him.
When he was given a breathalyzer test the man allegedly registered a reading of .35 which is more than four times the legal limit. Due to his extremely high blood alcohol content, the officers felt that he was in need of medical assistance and they brought him to the local emergency room where they knew he would receive the help he required more effectively than if he were jailed.
As of Thursday, nothing had been officially filed but authorities expect that he will face misdemeanor charges of lewd and lascivious behavior.
In a local editorial that was released following the initial story it was reported that this type of situation should not be used as a reason to mock the severity of the drug problem that exists, but rather to encourage people to use the event to come together in discussion to try to raise awareness and brainstorm ways to help combat the problem.
