Maine Man Not So Cool After Inhalant Arrest

From The Bangor Daily News:

Maine police pulled over a man who was driving erratically and found the intoxication came from an unexpected source. Around midnight, the man was found in possession of a bag containing wet spray paint. He attempted to hide the paraphernalia but his efforts were in vain as he showed evidence of abuse on his body.

The man's face and hands were covered with white or silver spray paint. While the quality abused is unclear, officers quickly ascertained the 48-year old was intoxicated. He passed a breathalyzer test but failed to prove he was not a hazard to motorists.

A Waldo County judge will determine how dangerous he is when the accused appears in court next month. However this is not his first inhalant abuse-related charge, police say. This time he may face a more than an unlawful use or possession of inhalants wrap if the judge believes he needs to learn a lesson. For now, he has been released on bail.
