"I'd kill you if I wasn't drunk," a man told an Athens police officer who found him passed out in the parking lot of a Church's Chicken with an open container of alcohol, according to a report in the Athens Banner-Herald.
Athens police arrested the 52-year-old man around 10 p.m. Friday after he refused to sign the citation for having the alcoholic drink in the parking lot of the Church’s on Oak Street.
Instead of signing it, the man repeatedly yelled and swore at the officer, police told the newspaper.
When he continued yelling, the man was arrested for public intoxication and for having the open container, police said.
