A Huntington man is facing a long list of charges after police say he walked into a downtown shop and urinated on more than $3,000 dollars worth of clothes.
Court documents say it happened Friday at the Chico's located in Pullman Square.
That's where Tommy Edward Edmonds Jr., 25, of Huntington allegedly walked inside the store, and urinated on a total of 38 pairs of jeans - each valued at $80 dollars.
Police say Edmonds had glassy eyes, slurred speech, and smelled of alcohol. Officers also say when they tried to place handcuffs on him, he pulled away, refused to walk, and then tried to get away from the patrol car. When he arrived at the police station, he refused to be fingerprinted and would not stop screaming.
Edmonds is charged with destruction of property, public intoxication, obstruction, and disorderly conduct. He remains in jail.
