COLUMBIA, Tenn. (Court TV) — A Tennessee twosome are in trouble for a front lawn love-in.
Dan Gilchrist, 45, and Paula Parris, 44, were charged last week with public intoxication and indecent exposure after a neighbor allegedly spotted them in a grassy grope-fest.
The neighbor first called police to complain that a couple was nude on the front lawn of their home. Moments later, the neighbor reportedly called police again with more details.
"There's a man and woman out in the yard," the neighbor reportedly told a 911 operator. "She's out there nude...They're having sex out here, and people are running by."
Responding officers found the couple in varying states of undress, according to a police report. Gilchrist was allegedly clad only in his underwear, while Parris had nothing on below the waist.
"She was bottomless with a gray sweater over herself," an officer wrote in the report.
Police allegedly found two bottles of vodka in the yard and arrested the couple.
Gilchrist was also later charged with disorderly conduct after repeatedly disrupting his bond hearing. He was released on $3,000 bond and Parris was released on $2,000 bond.
Both are set to appear Oct. 20 in General Sessions Court.
