California man in his underwear arrested in Taylorsville

A California man, clad in a shirt and underwear, was arrested early Tuesday morning in Taylorsville. Deputies with the Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Department were called to a hotel at 11780 N US 31. The caller claimed the man was making a disturbance.

When deputies arrived, they found 46-year-old Chad Corwin asleep in the lobby. Police say Corwin attempted to walk away several times before he was arrested after a brief struggle. Corwin is facing preliminary charges of:

Public Intoxication
Disorderly Conduct
Resisting Law Enforcement

He has since been released.

It was discovered that Corwin, who told officers that “he was going to his room,” was actually staying in a hotel located on the opposite side of the highway.
