Police said the man showed signs of intoxication and was placed under arrest. He was placed in a holding cell where he urinated in the toilet and then placed his feet in the toilet and proceeded to smear them across the cell door and glass.

A search of man's backpack revealed a three-quarters-empty bottle of vodka and two broken glass smoking devices containing burnt residue.

He was arraigned by Judge Douple who set bail at $1,000 (10 percent cash) and was transported to Bucks County Correctional Facility. He is charged with public drunkenness, obstructing the highway, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Shoplifting Suspect Caught On Camera

In other reports, Warrington Township Police cited a 29-year-old Willow Grove man with retail theft for an incident that happened in March at the Wal-Mart store.

The store's loss prevention officials told police that an inventory check found an expensive Plan B over-the-counter medication was missing.

When the store checked its video surveillance, it showed a man selecting and concealing paper products in a shoulder bag. He then proceeded to the health and beauty department where he selected the Plan B medication and concealed it under his shirt, police said.

The man then proceeded to select a sandwich and to fill a container from the hot bar. He then exited the store, failing to pay for the merchandise valued at $78.26, police said.

An investigation by police revealed the identity of the suspect, who turned himself in and was processed and released.
