FORT PAYNE, Ala. - A man was arrested and charged with
public lewdness for walking naked near a highway while
waving an American flag.

The DeKalb County Sheriff's Department arrested Gerald
Lynn Kelley, 52, the Fort Payne Times-Journal reported
Tuesday.

Deputy Mike James said deputies were sent to
Hammondville about 3 p.m. Sunday after receiving calls
about two men walking nude along U.S. 11, just inside
the town limits.

James said Kelley, who was allegedly drunk, was
wearing only a cowboy hat and boots.

The other man, reportedly clad in the same attire and
also carrying the American flag, could not be found.
Police reports show that Kelley and the other man had
been at a party that got out of hand.

Kelley posted a $1,500 bond and was released from
DeKalb County Jail early Monday morning.

There must be a "flying at half mast" joke in here somewhere. :p

:roflmao:

well living not too far from there, thought I heard in the news today where they caught the other guy. I think the first guy is trying to plead something (hopefully not insanity) to get a reduced charge or fine.

It has been a very big joke around here.
