Suggestive costume at Trunk or Treat event prompts outrage from village residents
Several citizens in the village of Shepherd are furious after a young man showed up at a Trunk or Treat event dressed as a penis.
The Shepherd Police Department received several 911 complaints as well as messages on its Facebook page. Shepherd Police Chief Luke Sawyer took to Facebook to explain the situation in a video posted on Tuesday, Nov. 1.
Sawyer said it's too bad the incident is overshadowing an otherwise incredible event and that the department talked to the young man before sending him on his way.
He added that as a father himself, he thought the costume was inappropriate, but as a police chief there was nothing that could be done.
