A 70-year-old man in Cochranton, Pennsylvania, came to the attention of police on January 10, 2014, when alarmed passing motorists saw him lying out in a field, presumably with his pants down around his ankles.

According to state police that afternoon the man, feeling the call of nature, had pulled over at an intersection, and walked out into a field to poop. He fell asleep in the field before he could finish his business. Luckily for him, the cold was not immediately life threatening; with the wind chill factored in, the temperature was a balmy 28° F.

Both police and EMTs were called to the scene. They reportedly found the man to have been under the influence of alcohol. Troopers charged him with DUI. His name has not been released.
