MARCO ISLAND , Fla., June 10 (UPI) -- A Florida man was arrested on Sunday after allegedly sexting dirty photos to a police officer he had originally spoken to about a suspicious vehicle in his neighborhood.

Paul Kirleis called the Marco Island police about the suspicious vehicle and the officer responded on his department-issued phone.

Following the conversation, the 30-year-old allegedly texted the officer "Who is this?" and "I am boo."

Those texts were followed up by a photo of a man in a thong and a picture of a man who looked like Kirleis bent over and looking back at the camera while naked.

After the photos, a text from Kirleis's phone number read, "Sooo."

When officers contacted Kirleis, he told them he "was very intoxicated and did not remember much from the night," according to the Naples Daily News. Kirleis was charged with stalking and prohibition of certain acts in connection with obscene, lewd materials.
