NAPLES, Fla. — A drunk man was caught when he broke into the Naples Police Department and looked around without thinking.
Joseph Moulton, 36, jumped over the fence of the south parking lot and went into an open patrol car, where he sat for a few minutes until he saw people come out. Moulton hid in the trees and moved when it was safe to do so.
The police report says that Moulton put the end of a water hose under the west door and turned on the water, which caused at least an inch of water damage.
Moulton looked for the men’s change room and made himself at home there…by taking a shower and taking some clothes for himself.
Bill Tindel, who lives in Naples, said Moulton was a very “brave” person for making trouble inside a police office.
Tindel said, “That’s kind of strange.”
Moulton stole a $900 bulletproof vest, pants, cap, and shirt that were part of his outfit. He also pooped on the floor of the women’s bathroom and threw a police radio in the toilet, according to the police report.
The police didn’t find out about what Moulton had done until he went to the closest 7-Eleven. One employee called the cops because Moulton seemed strange and was thought to be drunk.
The cops in Naples were able to find Moulton and put him in jail. During his interview, he said that he had been drinking and didn’t remember what he had done.
Moulton is being charged with two counts of burglary and one count of grand theft.
At the time, the Naples police are not saying anything because they are still looking into the case.
