A Modesto Walgreens was briefly evacuated Saturday morning after a man set his underwear on fire in the bathroom.

The man, 45-year-old Andrew Cheadle, was caught and arrested on two felony warrants out of Sacramento but not charged with arson due to the reason he lit his pants on fire. Modesto Police Sgt. Steve Hinkley said he’d had an accident and was trying to get his underwear off but couldn’t, so he used a lighter to burn them off.

The incident occurred at the Walgreens at Standiford Avenue and Carver Road at about 9:20 a.m.

Cheadle threw the burning underwear in the toilet which quickly extinguished the fire, but smoke filled the bathroom, prompting an evacuation of the store.

Cheadle left the store, admitting to several employees that he started the fire, then headed south on Carver, said Modesto Fire Department Battalion Chief Randy Anderson.

I'm assuming he had some sort of physical impairment or disability that made removing his underwear difficult. Still, using a lighter to burn off your clothing sounds like a terrible idea.

It reminds me of the time a guy accidentally drove through the wall of pharmacy I was working at.

The most insane part is that he was arrested on two felony charges.

Two felony warrants. Meaning he was wanted on other charges.

Oh I see. That wasn't clear to me. I understood that he faced 2 charges for the burning underwear.
