SALINAS, CA (September 11) - Wearing baggy pants and running from the cops don't mix, a Salinas parolee learned this morning when his oversized slacks dropped to his ankles and tripped him as he tried to outrun a California Highway Patrol officer.

Johnny Camel, 37, was riding in the passenger seat of a friend's car when two CHP officers pulled over the car for making an illegal U-turn on Work Street in Salinas around 4:30 a.m., CHP Officer Larry Starkey said today.

The driver pulled into the parking lot of a nearby Good Night Inn, at which time Camel jumped out of the car and began running away, according to CHP.

The officers yelled at Camel to stop, but, according to Starkey, he merely looked back and continued running.

One of the officers began chasing him on foot while the other stayed behind with the driver.

After about 100 feet, Camel's baggy pants fell to his ankles and toppled him onto the ground, Starkey said. The officer was able to arrest Camel without further incident.

He was booked into Monterey County Jail on suspicion of resisting arrest and violating his parole for running from police.

The driver was given a warning and released.
