While being arrested, Terry Whitmore, 49, told deputies that he didn’t want to go to jail because they don’t serve beer there, according to Sebastian Daily.

The incident that led to Whitmore’s arrest started when authorities received a call about a man standing in the road in Vero Beach. When deputies showed up, they found Whitmore sitting on the side of the road, Sebastian Daily reported. Rather than safely leaving the area, the 49-year-old walked into the middle of the road and swayed back and forth in front of oncoming traffic, nearly getting hit by a car, according to Sebastian Daily.
