Here’s the story, in a nutshell:

A Kenosha man was charged with carrying a concealed weapon while intoxicated after a police officer found him laying on a sidewalk.

According to a Kenosha Police report, and officer noticed a man lying on the sidewalk on the 2500 block of 63rd Street at about 1:30 a.m. Thursday.

The officer stopped to see if the man needed help, and found him conscious, breathing, and smelling very strongly of alcohol. The grip of a semi-automatic pistol was protruding from his pants pocket as he lay on the pavement.

The man, Paul W. Leach, Jr. 43, of Kenosha, told police he was walking home from a tavern. He had a concealed carry permit for the Glock handgun, which was fully loaded. Asked if he had been drinking, he said, according to the police report, “a lot, a lot.”

Later, according to the report, he told police “I was one liter of vodka in and the gun went in my pocket.”

He was cited with carrying a concealed weapon while intoxicated and given a ride home by police.
