Police Arrest Man Wearing Only a Toga
1 hour, 53 minutes ago
MORGANTON, N.C. - Police captured a man wearing only a toga while he sped away in a car with women's underwear inside. Michael Sean Ostrander, 33, was arrested Monday after allegedly breaking into the home of a Burke County woman and making off with some of her clothes.
The woman told police she was visiting a neighbor when she heard her burglar alarm go off and saw a man flee in a car.
The woman gave chase and called the police, with the state Highway Patrol and local officers joining the pursuit along North Carolina Highway 181.
According to the patrol, Ostrander was arrested near the Burke-Avery county line after stopping his car. The Burke County Sheriff's Office said it found panties and photos belonging to the woman inside Ostrander's car.
Ostrander is charged with breaking, entering and larceny, possession of stolen goods and speeding to avoid arrest — all felonies.
He spent four years in prison following a 2001 conviction in Catawba County on a second-degree rape charge.
A judge on Wednesday set a probable cause hearing for next month.

Frat initiation gone wrong?
Let me guess. When they asked him "Why?", he answered "It seemed like a good idea at the time."
"TOGA! TOGA! TOGA!!"
Senator Blutarski!
What if you were the cop that had to return the panties.
Here ma'am... we have recovered the panties..
Time to check in...
No, I'm sure it was Pissant!!! I've seen him wear that toga before!
"What if you were the cop that had to return the panties."
Can you match skid marks like you would fingerprints?
"Who wore the toga..."
I've notified my local cops of the newest fashion trend.

What did the psychiatrist say when the naked man walked into his office: "I can see your nuts"
Well, you know, sometimes the dry cleaners didn't have my uniform ready in time, so I had to improvise.
Lets examine the evidence. He was driving a car at excessive speed. He was wearing a toga. He had women's panties.
Obviously he was an American Imperialist out to find some innocent Freedom Fighters to torture.
Yes, but, was the guy wearing a HAT to match? In which case, it was Senator Byrd.
