Harv visits Indiana

Toad Licker Is Locked Up On Trespass Charge


Barefoot suspect, 41, tongued amphibian outside Indiana bar

 An Indiana man who was licking a toad while dancing by himself on an Indiana sidewalk is locked up after ignoring a trespass warning issued by cops, according to a police report.

 La Porte Police Department officers were called to a bar early Sunday morning when Harv, refused to leave the property after being escorted outside by security. The barefoot Harv would not provide bouncers with ID when he walked into JJ’s Side Out Bar & Grill, cops reported.

 After being steered out of the business--but before police arrived--he began dancing in the bar’s parking lot. “The subject then reportedly picked up a toad and was licking it prior to our arrival,” Officer Vincent Bowman noted.

 When questioned by cops, he had a “blank look on his face but no pupil dilation to suggest he was under the influence of any drugs.” Officers warned him that if he returned to the bar’s property he would be arrested. He seemed to understand the warning, Bowman wrote, “as when he was dancing he would walk right up to the property line that we pointed out and then walk back.”

But a few minutes after receiving the trespass warning, he returned to the bar’s parking lot. When police subsequently approached Harv, “he was holding another toad.”

Charged with misdemeanor trespassing, Harv was booked into the La Porte County jail, where he is being held in advance of a June 30 court appearance.

 Since the police report does not identify what kind of toad Harv was licking, it is impossible to determine the amphibian’s potential psychoactive properties or its toxicity. (2 pages)

WHOA, pass the bong dude

you can't make that kinda stuff up -- WOW

Couldn't be our Harv as he is only known to lick toads outside the J & J.

Cops don't have anything better to do?  What exactly did he do wrong? It seems as though the bar is at fault for letting someone in their premises without having ID to prove they are over the age of majority.  Is there a law against dancing and/or licking toads or other amphibians?
