A political canvasser tied to Pennsylvania Democrat Janelle Stelson’s bid to unseat Republican Rep. Scott Perry was caught with his pants down, literally, in a Mechanicsburg neighborhood full of kids, dog-walkers, and a public park, according to court records reported by WHP 580.
East Pennsboro Police say they were sent shortly after 3 p.m. Sunday to Delwood Drive near the Acri Road intersection after an unknown man had been sitting in his vehicle for several hours.
When officers made contact, 25-year-old Chimaobim Adedayo Igbojekwe of Aurora, Colorado, opened the door of his silver Ford SUV wearing only a shirt, with his genitals exposed.
He told police he was waiting to hand out flyers for Stelson’s campaign and pointed to the literature in the SUV.
Then, according to the same court records, he said he did not understand why it was a problem for him to have his genitals exposed while parked in a residential neighborhood.
Police noted residents were already in the area: a man walking his dog and children on bicycles. The SUV was parked close to a public park and next to a sidewalk.
Igbojekwe was originally charged with indecent exposure, a second-degree misdemeanor, and a summary count of disorderly conduct. Magisterial District Judge Jonathan R. Birbeck set bail at $49,000. He was held at Cumberland County Prison after he could not post it.
