Police say report of suspicious vehicle leads to disorderly conduct and drug charges.
It may seem hard to believe that the call of nature could go so wrong.

Macungie police were called to the Turkey Hill at 141 W. Main St. at 7:40 p.m. Jan. 29 for a report of a suspicious vehicle behind the store. Turns out there was nothing suspicious about the vehicle, but the unnamed male occupant from Macungie was seen urinating nearby, police said. He was charged with disorderly conduct.
