Florida Man Ticketed For “Booty Patrol” Truck Resembled Border Patrol Vehicle

Author

These Florida cops took didn’t think a joke was funny after arresting a man in his “Booty Patrol” truck. It seems like they made themselves the butt of the joke after their social media post! A police officer from the DeSoto County Sheriff’s Office is being made fun of on socials. It’s all because he ticketed a driver for “impersonating law enforcement” because of his “Booty Patrol” truck. His complaint was that it resembled a Border Patrol vehicle which is illegal.

Florida Man Ticketed For “Booty Patrol” Vehicle:

The deputy pulled over Gabriel Luviano, of Bradenton while he was driving his white Chevy Silverado pickup. During the traffic stop on Sunday he issued him a large $113 citation. According to the NYPost, the biggest problem were the added red and blue lights attached tot he vehicle. Luviano’s truck does look similar to a Border Partol vehicle but it’s quite obvious that it is all in fun and just a joke. The truck has a green diagonal stripe, an official-looking federal emblem making it easy to mistake for a US Border Patrol vehicle. The only thing that gives it away is the word “BOOTY PATROL” written in large letters reading “National Booty Behavior Protection” on the side of vehicle.

The sheriff’s office said Luviano was “impersonating law enforcement.” They even posted several images of the vehicle so everyone could be aware of the issue. That’s when the comments under the photo went awry. Many people are saying it’s ridiculous that he was pulled over and it was all an obvious joke. But the DeSoto County Sheriff’s Office doesn’t think so! They cited the man and issued him a ticket for the vehicle that resembled the Border Patrol trucks.

Here Is The Most Roach-Infested City In Florida

When it comes to roaches, I like calling them Palmetto bugs. Sounds classier right? If you live in Florida you have seen many roaches, but what city is the most infested? I live in St. Petersburg and it did not make this list. “Here is the most roach-infested city in Florida.”  Can you guess the city? You will see below.

If you have roaches does it mean your home is dirty?

According to the National Pesticide Information Center, “Finding roaches is not a sign that your house is dirty. Even if you clean regularly and maintain a tidy home, cockroaches can usually find food and water without much trouble. This allows them to thrive in many environments.”

Roaches have been on this earth for over 200 years.  The common cockroach can survive forces up to 900 times greater than its own body weight. Roaches can also squeeze through openings. On top of all of this their reproduction abilities, are very quick. These are all the reasons roaches are hard to eliminate.  Roach infestations are most common in summer months because they thrive in hot temperatures! 

Funny Roach story

I once went to a guy’s house and woke up to a roach in my wig. I felt so dirty! He apologized but at that point, I was already disgusted. His house was actually not dirty, so I don’t know why there was a roach in my wig.

Have you ever been in a situation like this? Is a person having roaches in their home a deal breaker? I want to hear your stories! Feel free to email me [email protected]. As you read above, someone having roaches in their home doesn’t necessarily mean their house is dirty.
