An apparently intoxicated Conway man — who was laying in snow — asked police to take him to jail “so he could sleep,” according to a police report at the Conway Police Department.
Police responded at about 4:50 p.m. Saturday to check on a 33-year-old Conway man, who was laying in the snow in front of South Davis Street. Officers observed the man’s speech was slurred, and he just lay on the ground despite the cold snow, according to the report. His clothing was wet and the temperature was about 38 degrees.
No one was at the man’s residence when officers checked.
The fire department and Metropolitan Emergency Medical Services responded because the man was exposed to cold weather for awhile, but the man decided he didn’t want medical treatment. He “wanted to be taken to jail so he could sleep,” according to the report.
Police had to help him to his feet and into a police vehicle. They took him into custody for public intoxication, but a note on the report said there is no mugshot of the man because he “was not cooperative.”

They could have photoed the Snow Angel! That would have made the booked top 10 for 2012.
As much I despised booked...(Inocent until proven guilty). I still have to laugh.

NO [filtered word]! He was outside in the damn snow!
Maybe
They really didn't want to deal with him and were going to ditch him on whoever might have been at his home.

Just in at the wire, but this is a winner.

Q:How many cops does it take to get a mugshot?
A:Apparently one more than Conway has.
