If cops pull you over, handing them three NicoDerm patches instead of your license, registration and proof of insurance probably won't distract them from noticing your fly is open and the front of your pants are wet


Shouts about the Germans being after us would be apropos for allied soldiers during World War II.

Not so much for a guy from Lake Worth about to be arrested in Palm City a week or so ago.

Such was the case for Lance Burge, 31, who was stopped Oct. 20 after Martin County Sheriff's deputies went to a reckless vehicle report on Southwest Martin Highway and Southwest Mapp Road, according to a recently released affidavit.

A Mazda reportedly nearly struck a woman and also was doing "donuts" in a grocery store parking lot.

Meanwhile, dispatchers gave the tag number of a Mercedes-Benz involved in a hit and run crash. The Mercedes almost got in a head on collision with a person identified as the victim before backing into the victim's car and fleeing.

A deputy stopped a Mercedes with a matching tag. The driver, Burge, was trying to crawl over the center console. His fly was down, the front of his pants wet.

Deputies asked for his license, registration and proof of insurance. He handed over three NicoDerm CQ patches.
