Sleeping man gets locked inside I Don't Care Bar

[March 28, 2009]  HOPKINSVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- A patron at the I Don't Care Bar & Grill evidently didn't care about leaving until it was way past closing time and the door was locked.

 The man, whose name was not released, told police in western Kentucky that he fell asleep inside the bar and when he got up to leave he set off the alarm.

Hopkinsville, Ky., police officers arrived a few minutes before 3 a.m. Friday to find him still locked inside the establishment and unable to find a way out.

So they helped him leave the bar.

No one was arrested. Evidently it's not a crime to be left behind after closing time at I Don't Care.
