A West Virginia Man was arrested last weekend after police found him inhaling spray paint in a local park. This marks the suspect’s 6th inhalant related offense since July 2005 when officers “found him covered in gold paint and attempting to purchase more paint.”Police received a call early Saturday afternoon from an anonymous source claiming to have seen a man ‘huffing’ paint in a secluded area known as the Mud Pit. According to reports, the suspect resisted arrest- forcing officers to use pepper spray to subdue him. Once in police custody the suspect was “sprayed down with water” to remove chemical residue left from the pepper spray. He was then transported to a nearby hospital, where he underwent a thorough medical examination before being taken to the Northern Regional Jail on charges of inhaling intoxicants and obstructing a police officer.
Earlier this year, the suspect was arrested after officers discovered him hitchhiking on a West Virginia bypass; “his eyes glazed over and bloodshot…his face and hands covered in gold and gray spray paint.”
