Security alerted law enforcement to a white male seen by guests masturbating while watching women, as well as sticking his hand down his pants and touching himself on three occasions while women and children entered the elevator.

PANAMA CITY BEACH — The police chief of Level Plains, Alabama was arrested Tuesday for allegedly masturbating in public in an elevator in the Aqua Condominium and while walking down the beach behind teenage girls.

Billy Maurice Driggers, 44, from Daleville, Alabama, was arrested at his place of work and charged with four counts of disorderly conduct.

According to Panama City Beach Police, security alerted law enforcement to a white male seen by guests masturbating while watching women, as well as sticking his hand down his pants and touching himself on three occasions while women and children entered the elevator. He was wearing just shorts, according to reports.

Officers located the man matching that description and identified him as Driggers, who was not a registered guest at the hotel.

It was also discovered that Driggers allegedly was seen touching himself while walking down the beach in front of the condo while following teenage girls, along with taking video and photos of girls rinsing off after coming off the beach.

According to PCBPD, law enforcement were not able to determine that Driggers exposed his genitalia, but PCBPD did describe Drigger's actions as "obscene" and "sexually deviant in nature."

Driggers was held in the Dale County Jail and is awaiting extradition to Bay County. He has been placed on administrative leave without pay pending the outcome of his case, according to a statement from Level Plains Mayor Bruce Grantham.
