A man and woman from Florida were charged after allegedly performing sex acts on the side of a road in the view of several passing cars.
In the middle of the afternoon on November 14, a multitude of vehicles were traveling down US Highway 19 N in Largo while a male and female were allegedly on the side of the road engaging in sexual activities.
A man driving past the allegedly obscene display called to notify the authorities about what he had seen. The caller reported that he saw a couple taking part in oral sexual gratification and that the male was pleasuring the female when he viewed the alleged event.
The Largo Police Department sent response to the location reported by the caller, and when they caught the couple they were reportedly identified as 39-year-old Amber Gormley, and her partner, 30-year-old Shawn McClelland.
The pair was placed under arrest, and the authorities reported that they believed everything that allegedly went on between them was consensual.
According to McClelland’s arrest affidavit, the police believed that he was under the influence of narcotics.
After reportedly being read his Miranda rights, the authorities said that McClelland decided to give them a statement about what had taken place between himself and Gormley.
It was reported that McClelland admitted to engaging in both oral and digital sex acts with the woman.
McClelland was booked into the Pinellas County jail, and he is expected to face charges for suspicion of felony lewd and lascivious exhibition, and misdemeanor possession of synthetic marijuana.
Gormley was also incarcerated, and she is facing one count of felony lewd and lascivious exhibition.
Both McClelland and Gormley were held on $10,000 bonds.
