but he was such a nice boy

A Miami-Dade man was using a car's sunroof for much more exposure than is legal, authorities said.

Julio Socarras Mompeller, 31, is accused of standing up through the sunroof of a silver Mercedes Benz with his pants down, exposing himself and making self-stimulating gestures with his hand, according to the Monroe County Sheriff's Office.

The Sheriff's Office says the incident took place about 9 a.m. Sunday in the southbound lanes of U.S. 1 near Mile Marker 90.5 in Plantation Key.

The incident was reported by an off-duty Florida Highway Patrol trooper who was taking his wife and young child to a 9/11 ceremony, the Sheriff's Office said.

Two Monroe County Sheriff's deputies were able to stop the vehicle a few miles later and reported that a shirtless Mompeller was still in the passenger seat with his pants loosened. According to the Sheriff's Office, the two other people in the car admitted that Mompellar exposed himself but said they didn't know why.

Mompeller was booked into the Monroe County Jail on a charged of indecent exposure.
