Methinks he doth protesteth too much...

...or something like that. This morning's paper had a rather amusing article about a man on St. Simons Island who was arrested for obstruction of a police officer.  

Seems the man thought the officer, who apparently was lost, was trespassing and wanted the officer to arrest himself as part of a citizen's arrest. According to the Glynn County Police chief, the fact that the officer drove past a "No Trespassing" sign did not warrant an arrest. A person must be given a verbal request to leave, he said. If they return, they can then be arrested. 

Hmmmmmmmm ... and the rest of the story?

Stay tuned.
