Ramsey, Minnesota was the scene of an interesting crime last week as Alan Petrusson decided to tie himself to a tree. Now, some of you might be wondering why that is such an interesting crime. Well, it gets weirder as Petrusson decided to do so with a blindfold over his eyes and his genitals exposed for all to see. He told police that he was waiting for anonymous sex when he pulled this stunt.
“It’s the weirdest thing I’ve heard of out there,” Ramsey Police Chief James Way said. “We have had reports of sexual activity out there though.”
Petrusson tried to tell police that he was simply sleeping when they showed up to remove him from the tree.
“I don’t believe that,” he said. “That’s up to a judge and/or jury to determine, if it gets that far.”
Petrusson is facing multiple charges of lewd conduct, indecent exposure and trespassing. The trespassing charge comes because he was tied to a tree that was not on the property of the park he was at during the incident.
“I really do not appreciate in-your-face-type behavior like that,” an unidentified woman said. It has been reported previously that there are all types of interesting incidents at the park, including one where a man was reading a book in his car when another man reached into his window. Another incident included a pastor attempting to run from the police by jumping into the river.
