Clothing is for slow people


Good thing I put my pants on before my shirt in the mornings!!

Pants-less driver lands in jail




He was on way to work when pulled over

It's pretty bad if you get arrested for drugs.

It's pretty embarrassing if you get arrested for drugs while not wearing pants while driving to work.

But Monroe County Sheriff's Office deputies say that's just what happened Sunday to George Micelli, 42, of Homestead.




Deputies say that Sunday at 8:30 a.m. Deputy Francisco Gaete was watching for a silver minivan that had reportedly been traveling recklessly. He spotted it as it turned into a gas station at mile marker 106, approached the driver and asked for his license and registration. The driver reportedly couldn't produce either one.

A check of his name revealed his license was suspended eight times so as Gaete prepared to take Micelli into custody, he noticed the suspect was wearing only a shirt and underwear.

Deputy Becky Herrin said Gaete asked why he wasn't wearing pants and Micelli replied that he was on his way to work at the gas station where the traffic stop took place.




Herrin said he said he thought it would be more comfortable to go to work in his underwear.

She said a search of Micelli's van turned up a folded dollar bill that had three foil packets with a brown substance inside; she said it tested positive for heroin.

Micelli was booked on charges of driving with his license suspended and possession of a controlled substance.
