Shortly after 1 in the afternoon, a couple of female employees at a couple of stores near Orange City witnessed an unexpected sight: A 59-year-old man wearing blue jeans and a “burgundy pull-over hoodie” was urinating near some bushes in front of a business.
One of the employees yelled “Hey” and “walked over to the front of the store and smacked on the interior of the glass to alert the male. The male finished, walked up to the glass, and stuck his middle finger out to her from the other side and yelled ‘F*** off’.” When a sheriff’s deputy later watched video of the whole incident, he noted that the guy actually stuck out both of his middle fingers. (At least the deputy was reasonably sure those were both fingers.)
One of the witnesses told the lawman that Public Pee-er’s pants were still unzipped when he walked to the window.
Anyhow, after he expressed his anger, the fellow walked back and sat down on a bench where he’d been before he felt the call of nature.
After watching the video, the deputy inspected the area near the bushes where Public Pee-er had relieved himself. He “observed multiple wet spots and fresh liquid splatter spots on multiple leaves in the general area along with a small puddle” (a lovely description), and he took “multiple photographs of the scene.” (But I don’t think he put crime-scene tape around the whole mess.)
Guess it’s a good thing the guy just watered the bushes and didn’t wash the windows!
Public Pee-er was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of indecent exposure – exposure of sexual organs 1st offense, and he was taken to jail.
That sure was an expensive bathroom break!
