Pollock was trying to get through a metal detector to get to a courtroom in family court, kept setting off the metal detector, police said. He tried to tell guards it was his pants, but they weren’t having it.
After a “heated discussion,” Pollock gave up, dropped his drawers and put them in a bin. “At this point, Pollock was standing in the middle of the Family Division Rotunda wearing only his shirt and underwear,” the sheriff’s office said.
Officers arrived and detained Pollock for a brief time before releasing him.
Police helpfully reminded people that “visible underwear is not part of the dress code” in the courthouse.
