Carlos Colon, 30, was arrested for allegedly delivering newspapers without wearing pants after Moscow Police responded to a report early Thursday morning that a pantsless man was walking in a trailer park on Almon Street. Officers found the suspect nearby inside a vehicle pulling his pants up. Colon then reportedly admitted to officers that he sometimes goes naked from the waist down while on his morning newspaper route. He was cited and released for misdemeanor indecent exposure.
