FORT PIERCE — There can be dangers associated with wearing your brother’s pants.

Jeffery Junior Davis, 59, of Fort Pierce appears to have learned that the hard way, according to an arrest affidavit.

The April 19 case began about 8:17 p.m. when Fort Pierce police say a Ford Explorer didn’t come to a complete stop at North 24th Street and Avenue E.

Police stopped the Ford and spoke to the driver, identified as Davis.

Davis told investigators he didn’t have a license.

He further said the tag on the Ford didn’t belong to it, and that he put it on so he could drive to the store.

In light of the alleged license and tag infractions, it could be said Davis was caught with his pants down.

Police searched Davis and reported finding a small amount of crack cocaine in a pocket of his pants, a garment that covers the body from the waist to the ankles.

“Man, these are my brother’s pants,” Davis is quoted as exclaiming.

Davis likely needed this encounter with police like a kick in the pants because he was arrested on charges of cocaine possession and driving while license suspended.
