He apparently misunderstood what it means to make a deposit.

According to a Murfreesboro Police Department report, an officer was dispatched to the bar, where a witness said that Hutton walked to the ATM and “pulled down his pants and underwear exposing his genitals.” Officer M. Rickard added, “Mr. Hutton then attempted to have sexual intercourse with the ATM.”

After his encounter with the ATM, Hutton “then began to walk ‘nude’ around the bar thrusting his hips in the air,” Rickard reported.

Hutton was subsequently escorted from the bar and “told to sit at a wooden picnic table.” But once outside the bar, Hutton allegedly “again exposed himself again and engaged in sexual intercourse with the wooden picnic table.”

Seen in the above mug shot, Hutton was booked into the county jail on a public intoxication charge. A cop reported that Hutton–who remains locked up in lieu of $250 bond–smelled of booze, had bloodshot eyes, and had slurred speech.

Hutton, who was not charged for exposing himself, is scheduled for a July 1 appearance in General Sessions court

Homeless Man Gets $37,000 From Bank’s ATM

How does a homeless man get $37,000 from an ATM? You’ll need three things – a bank card, a bank account with at least $100 in it and a whole lot of patience to request $700 cash advances 33 times.

Let me explain.

Lt. Todd Bernard of the South Portland Police Department said Friday morning that officers were first called to the bank branch at 1 a.m. Thursday.

“We got a call that he was sleeping in the [ATM] vestibule, and we had to move him along,” Bernard said. “Then at around 5:30 a.m., we got another call that he was back there and taking an unusually long time at the ATM by a woman who was trying to use it. She thought it seemed suspicious.”

When they arrived a second time, police officers found the same man inside filling a shopping bag with cash from the ATM. Police say he had more than $37,000 in cash in the bag when they arrived.

Bernard said the man, who will not be identified unless charges are filed against him, had an ATM card and about $100 in his account. But he was using the “cash advance” feature on the machine and repeatedly requesting $700.

The ATM obliged an estimated 53 times before police intervened. Bernard said the cash advance option on an ATM is for people who have a pre-approved line of credit with a bank, which the homeless man did not have.

Officers returned the money to the bank.

“It is illegal. He is taking money that doesn’t belong to him, and the bank at this point has elected not to prosecute, although the case is still under investigation,” Bernard said. “That ATM has been taken out of service and is being checked out to determine why it malfunctioned.”
