Kent Police arrested a man for investigation of lewd conduct after he reportedly mooned an apartment manager.

Officers responded to a report about a man who pulled his pants down on March 4 at the Birch Creek Apartments, 12805 S.E. 275th St., according to the police report. A witness said the man walked away from the complex carrying Safeway bags with clothes that still had the price tags. He left walking toward the nearby Safeway.

An officer saw the man who matched the description sitting in front of the Safeway. He had a bag with two new Seahawks jerseys, including one with a price tag of $51.99. He told police a friend gave him the jerseys.

When officers checked with witnesses at the apartment complex, they were told the man had been seen looking in apartment windows. The apartment manager showed up to investigate and saw the man smoking marijuana. She asked him to stop smoking marijuana or she would call the police. He reportedly turned around, pulled his pants down and exposed his buttocks.

When police tried to talk to the man about what he had been up to, he began to rant that he was the boss of the Kent jail and that he was with the FBI. Officers noticed the man appeared to have large items in his jacket pockets. They searched him and found a hammer and a rock about the size of a softball. Police checked with Safeway to see if it had videotape of the man taking jerseys from the store but employees were not able to find any evidence.
