California Man Found Naked In Pool With Child Arrested In New Mexico
ACOMA PUEBLO, N.M. (AP) - A California man is facing charges after police found him swimming naked in a New Mexico hotel pool with a small child in his arms.
New Mexico State Police said Michael Lee of La Palma, California, was arrested Saturday at the Sky City Casino in Acoma, New Mexico, following a call about a nude man in the pool.
Police say Lee ignored officers' instructions to get out of the pool but was eventually arrested. State officials took custody of the child.
Lee faces a number of charges, including indecent exposure.
According to investigators, Lee took his daughter from the mother during a domestic dispute and later stole a semi-truck in California.
It was not known if Lee had an attorney.
