The post read, "We at the Kitty Hawk Police Department understand that some of North Carolina's laws may be confusing. We also understand that educating you about the laws when you are being placed into handcuffs may be a little untimely. We thought if we could avoid more paperwork, and you could avoid going to jail, we both win. So, we have decided to post periodic educational messages on how to avoid going to jail. Here is the first of many to come."

The post continued, "Prior to wearing someone else's pants, please remove all drugs, drug paraphernalia, stolen goods or any other illegal items the 'owner' of the pants may have left behind. 'These are not my pants' is not an affirmative defense. Glad we could help."

The post concluded, "Disclaimer: We are not attorneys nor non-attorney spokespersons and this message is not intended as legal advice...."

Douglas Kelly suspected that the drugs he illegally bought and subsequently consumed were not what he had bargained for. So he called the Putnam County Sheriff's Office, asking them to test the drugs so he could press charges against the person who sold them to him, according to CNN.

Kelly gave deputies samples of the “clear, crystallized substance” for testing saying that he had purchased methamphetamine about a week earlier and had a “bad reaction” after smoking the narcotic.

Kelly was arrested and charged with possession of methamphetamine. He was walked to the Putnam County Jail and held on $5,000 bond.

For such a small place, Kitty Hawk sure is famous.

In 1900, a Kitty Hawk citizen, Mr. Bill Tate, assured the Wright brothers in a letter that Kitty Hawk would provide the ideal location for their aviation experiments. "If you decide to try your machine here & come I will take pleasure in doing all I can for your convenience & success & pleasure, & I assure you, you will find a hospitable people when you come among us."
