Loading ...Police arrested Malcolm Davidson, a 27-year-old white male resident of Wilmington, NC, in a pumpkin patch at 11:38pm one Friday.
Davidson was charged with lewd and lascivious behavior, public indecency, and public intoxication at the County courthouse on Monday.
The suspect allegedly stated that as he was passing a pumpkin patch, he decided to stop. “You know, a pumpkin is soft and squishy inside, and there was no one around here for miles. At least, I thought there wasn’t,” he stated, in a phone interview from the County courthouse jail.
Davidson went on to state that he pulled over to the side of the road, picked out a pumpkin that he felt was appropriate for his purposes, cut a hole in it, and proceeded to satisfy his alleged “need”.
“I guess I was just really into it, you know?” he commented, with evident embarrassment. In the process, Davidson apparently failed to notice the Wilmington Municipal police car approaching, and was unaware of his audience until officer Brenda Taylor approached him. “It was an unusual situation, that’s for sure,” said officer Taylor. “I walked up to (Davidson) and he’s just working away at this pumpkin.”
Taylor went on to describe what happened when she approached Davidson.
“I just went up and said, ‘Excuse me Sir, but do you realize that you are doing it with a pumpkin?’ He got real surprised as you’d expect and then looked me straight in the eye and said, ‘A pumpkin? Damn! Is it midnight, already?’”
