Pontiac man to Lake Orion police officer: You're arresting 'God'

A Pontiac man has been arrested on allegations of drunken driving after Lake Orion police say he was driving down the wrong side of the road and claimed to be God.

Kandy Sylester Jones, 35, was arraigned Monday in 52-3 District Court on charges of drunken driving and driving on a suspended license.

This was Jones third time being arrested for drunken driving and a second time he has been arrested for driving on a suspended license.

He is being held on a $5,000 cash bond.

The incident happened about 5:30 p.m. July 6 when a resident living on Smith Court, off Lapeer Road, called 911 about two men arguing and yelling profanities in an area where small children were playing.

An officer was dispatched to the scene and spoke with the manager of the rental units in the area.

The manager also heard the quarreling, police said.

The officer walked around the area and spotted two men matching the descriptions given by the caller, police said.

The men were on a pontoon boat docked at an address on Heights Road, just south of Smith Court and adjacent to the rental properties.

The officer drove to the address on Heights Road and approached the two men, who were drunk, police said.

Jones, who wasn t wearing a shirt or shoes, told officers he was God and had spit and drool covering his chest, police said.

The second man wasn t as drunk and explained to the officer Jones was visiting and had drank a large amount of alcohol, police said.

The officer warned the men to stop the fighting and swearing and watched as they went back to the rental units.

A few minutes later, the officer reported seeing Jones driving a silver car the wrong way on Heights Road, which is a one-way street, police said.

Jones pulled up next to the officer, parked the car and got out, police said.

The officer stopped Jones and had him go through sobriety tests, which he failed, police said.

A preliminary breath test showed his blood alcohol level to be 0.137 percent.

Jones, however, continued to insist he was fine, even though he couldn t walk without falling, police said. Officials added that Jones told the officer he was arresting God.

He has an extensive criminal history dating back to 1994, with convictions for possession of controlled substances, police said.

Jones will be back before a judge July 14 for a pre-exam conference before 52-3 District Court Judge Lisa Asadoorian.
