"The police arrested Patrick Lawrence, a 22-year-old white male,
resident of Dacula, GA, in a pumpkin patch at 11:38 p.m. on Friday.
Lawrence will be charged with lewd and lascivious behavior, public
indecency and public intoxication at the Gwinnett County courthouse on
Monday.

The suspect explained that as he was passing a pumpkin patch he
decided to stop. 'You know, a pumpkin is soft and squishy inside and there
was no one around here for miles. At least I thought there wasn't,' he
stated in a phone interview.

Lawrence went on to say 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 need. 'I guess I was just
really into it, you know?' he commented with evident embarrassment.

In the process, Lawrence apparently failed to notice a Gwinnett
County 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 (Lawrence) and he's..just
working away at this pumpkin.'

Taylor went on to describe what happened when she approached
Lawrence...'I just went up and said, 'Excuse me sir, but do you realize
that you are screwing a pumpkin?' He froze and was clearly very
surprised
that I was there and then looked me straight in the face and said, 'A
pumpkin? damn...is it midnight already?'..."
