In summary, the police arrested Patrick Lawrence, 22 year old white
male, in a pumpkin patch 11:38 p.m. on Friday night.
On Monday, at the Gwinnett County courthouse, Lawrence was charged
with lewd and lascivious behavior, public indecency, and public
intoxication.
The suspect explained that as he was passing a pumpkin patch on his
way home from a drinking session when he decided to stop, "You know
how a pumpkin is soft and squishy inside, and there was no one
around for miles or at least I thought there wasn't anyone around"
he stated in a telephone interview.
Lawrence went on to say that he pulled over to the side of the road,
picked out a pumpkin that he felt was appropriate to his purpose,
cut a hole in it, and proceeded to satisfy his
alleged 'need.' "Guess I was really into it, you know?" he commented
with evident embarrassment.
In the process of doing the deed, Lawrence failed to notice an
approaching police car 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 Lawrence and he's just banging away at this
pumpkin."
Officer Taylor went on to describe what happened when she approached
Lawrence .
"I said, "Excuse me sir, but do you realize that you're having sex
with a pumpkin?"
He froze and was clearly very surprised that I was there, and then
he looked me straight in the face and said...
"A pumpkin? Shit...is it midnight already?"
