The Blotter is a look at some of the unusual things that happen on the crime beat in Bay County.
An officer spotted a man drinking Cobra beer in a local park. The officer told the man it was illegal to drink in the park. The man replied that he did not know it was illegal.
The officer, perhaps growing frustrated, replied that it would have been impossible to miss all the signs around the park that state it is illegal to drink in the park.
The man replied that he could not read.
Game, set and match mister police officer.
Actually, no. The man had pills in his pocket and was arrested for possession and for drinking in the park.
