Man Arrested At Playground Telling Kids Where Babies Come From

CLEARWATER, FL -- Clearwater Police say a 30-year-old homeless man climbed on top of some playground equipment at Clearwater Beach and began telling children where babies come from.

Police took Otis Dawayne Ryan, 30, into custody on a charge of disorderly conduct.

The incident occurred about 3 p.m. Sunday, May 21 at the playground near Pier 60. Police say Ryan first approached some tourists and began making inappropriate comments to the women.

He then climbed to the top of a piece of playground equipment where children ages 4 to 6 were playing.

"He started shouting from the top telling the children that babies come out of women — and used a vulgar term in doing so," wrote a Clearwater Police officer in the report.

Parents promptly rushed to the playground to retrieve their children.

According to arrest records, Ryan, a well-known transient in the area, has been arrested multiple times by Pinellas County Sheriff's deputies, St. Petersburg Police, Pinellas Park Police and Clearwater Police for disorderly conduct, aggravated assault, battery and carrying a concealed weapon.
