Yes, this was part of the plot of Trees Lounge.

Deputies responding to a call at about 5:30 p.m. about a suspicious vehicle in a parking lot near 5226 Applegate Road approached an ice cream truck with the name "Hokey Pokey" on the side and rear.

Inside the truck was Westberry who, according to the arrest report, had "extremely slurred speech" and dilated pupils.

Westberry told the deputies that he had just finished his ice cream route and was waiting in the parking lot to pick up his children at a nearby day care center.

He eventually admitted to smoking a small amount of marijuana and drinking at least five beers while in the parking lot, according to the report.

The "at least five beers" part is more alarming to me, actually, if this guy was on his way to pick up his children. The story implies that he was going to drive there.

'At least five beers!' That is the worst of this story - you're right Jordan!

At least though, he was in the right place for getting the munchies...

jordan,

That is just plain unacceptable behavior from the Ice Cream Man.

I like this story. It's good stuff.
