BEING DETAINED FOR A WHILE

FORT WORTH, TX

Okay, this guy was sitting on the side of a busy highway yelling at cars and throwing stuff as I drove over to Staples to fax something. When I was headed back the police were there questioning him. I think he was out of it, either on drugs or mental issues. Soon afterwards an ambulance showed up so I'm not sure what happened after that.

Well seen, Cindi ... my guess is he's a guest of the state now ...

He's so chilled!

Like how you made it B&W, adds to the drama. I hope he gets some care. Most people who are mentally ill don't receive the care they truly need.

He looks so relaxed sitting there, he could be a friend of the policemen having a gossip!! Made me smile till I read the details... lets hope it was just one beer too many!

No shirt. Classic. Guaranteed a spot on "Cops".
