A Palmer Township man took his dog to a local pet store but left his pants at home, township police said.

On the morning of Nov. 25, Kevin Steele walked into the Petco off Nazareth Road in a long Kansas City Chiefs T-shirt and nothing else, officers allege.

Steele took his dog to the shot clinic, where it received a rabies shot, then Steele walked to the registers and paid for the service.

Police noted the T-shirt was long, but that employees could see Steele's genitals were exposed and called police.

Steele got into his car and drove away before officers arrived, but employees provided the cops with his license plate number.

Police said when they went to Steele's home, he answered the door wearing nothing but the same T-shirt.

Charges were filed on Nov. 29 and Steele, who turned 55 on Wednesday, was arraigned Thursday morning on charges of open lewdness and disorderly conduct.

Steele waived his preliminary hearing in the case, sending the charges to Northampton County Court. He is free on $2,500 unsecured bail.

Steele is represented by attorney Donald Souders Jr.
