Just kidding. But this story reminds me of the time I got a call in the middle of the night that a naked woman was wandering down the esplanade on Galveston’s Broadway. Although my partner and I were given the call, two sheriff’s units arrived at the scene before we did. And before we placed the naked drunk lady in our patrol car, every Galveston PD patrol unit had shown up, as well as a Galveston fire truck. To top it off, as we were leaving for the jailhouse, here comes a Texas City area constable with his unit’s emergency lights on and siren blaring (Texas City is 17 miles from Galveston).
TAYLOR BURNHAM’S NUDE RIDE: ALLEGEDLY DRUNK CORPUS COWGIRL LEADS COPS ON CHASE WEARING NOTHING BUT COWBOY BOOTS

Police say a Corpus Christi woman was drunk when they arrested her early Saturday morning after a low-speed chase. At the time of her arrest, 18-year-old Taylor Burnham was wearing nothing but a pair of cowboy boots.
Acting on a complaint about a suspicious person, police found Burnham in a back alley in the 1960s-era, ranch-home-dotted Brady Bunch-esque Lakes subdivision of Corpus, standing in her birthday suit between a Jeep Wrangler and someone's back fence. Instead of sticking around to answer the cops' questions, Burnham jumped in the Wrangler and drove off, cops in pursuit.
The chase only lasted for a mile and a half and Burnham's speed never exceeded 30 miles an hour, police say, but she did manage to steer the Jeep onto the sidewalk at one point.
Once she was apprehended, a female officer arrived to help this South Texas Godiva get decent. And then she was given a battery of sobriety tests, which she appears not to have scored all that well on, as she was arrested for both evading arrest and driving while intoxicated.

Well, at least she was wearing he boots so she didn't get her feet dirty. You gotta keep your priorities straight.
