Bad luck or dumb criminal?

28-year-old Anna Lee Halderman was drunk and topless on a Connecticut beach. One beach-goer didn't appreciate it and called the cops. Well, she didn't appreciate THAT, so she removed the rest of her bikini in protest.

"The caller reported to officers that she had observed a female on the beach remove the top portion of her bathing suit to tan," wrote Westport police in a statement, adding that the complainant was with her young child at the time of the incident. "Believing that this behavior was inappropriate for a public beach, this individual attempted to confront the woman about what she was doing. Upon speaking with this individual and attempting to convey her concerns, the woman allegedly became belligerent and proceeded to remove the bottom portion of her bathing suit exposing her buttocks."

The whole occurred in front of the young child. When police arrived, Halderman was nowhere to be found. After an extensive investigation by police, she was identified and arrested.

"In a subsequent interview with Halderman she stated that she did not recall what she may have done on the date in question but apologized for her behavior," police said. "An arrest warrant was sought and granted for Halderman in connection with this incident."

She was charged with second-degree breach of peace and risk of injury to a minor. She was released after posting bond on court-set bail of $50,000.

We're gonna go with bad luck on this one. Ms. Halderman, we hope that you can get some act-right, and continue on as a law abiding citizen.
