| Police arrested Malcolm Davidson, a 27 year
old white male, resident of White Plains, NY, in a pumpkin patch at 11:38pm Friday.
Davidson will be 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 as 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 to 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 White Plains 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
screwing a pumpkin?'"
He got real surprised, as you'd expect, and then looked me
straight in the face and said, "A pumpkin!? Damn... is it midnight already?" |
