ELKHART, Ind. (AP) - A 51-year-old man told a police officer he
was naked in a northern Indiana cemetery because he had taken off
his wet clothes after checking on his in-laws' grave and then
wanted a closer look at some flowers.

The officer was off duty and jogging through Rice Cemetery in
Elkhart Sunday afternoon when he saw the naked man get into a truck
and drive away. The officer later tracked down the Mishawaka man
from his license plate number.

The man said he had been golfing all day and that he undressed
in his truck because his underwear was wet. He said he left his
truck naked to look at the flowers because he did not have his
glasses.

He was arrested on a preliminary misdemeanor charge of public
indecency.
