VAN BUREN, Ark. - A man dressed in women's underwear, awakened as he slept in a vehicle at Lee Creek Reservoir, had a homemade bomb in the car, a Crawford County deputy says.

Earl Henry Woodruff, 40, of Van Buren, was arrested about 5 a.m. Monday after a deputy was sent to the reservoir in response to a call about a parked vehicle occupied by a man wearing women's underwear.

Sgt. Daymon Blount of the Crawford County sheriff's office said that, when he arrived at the site, he found a man sitting asleep at the wheel of a sport-utility vehicle. Blount said the man was wearing a bra and women's thong panties, but pulled up a pair of jeans shorts — which had been around his ankles — when he was awakened.

In a search of the vehicle, Blount said he found a large plastic bottle wrapped in duct and electrical tape inside the front-seat console. A fuse about 13 inches long extended from a hole that had been drilled through the lid.

Blount said he asked the man what the item was.

"That's just a thing filled with gunpowder," was the response, according to the deputy.

just, weird

weird, but not *that* weird...

It is Arkansas lol.

I live on the Western edge of Illinois near the Illinois/Iowa/Missouri boarder. Earlier this spring there was a news item in the local paper about a man finally arrested while returning to his car - naked - after being spotted a number of times hanging around the perimeter of a hog confinement facility.

I ate a lot less pork this summer ...
