Roger Dean Whitt

Roger Dean Whitt wanted to do a good deed when he approached a Florida Highway Patrol trooper in a Steak 'n Shake parking lot this week to turn in driver license he found.

But Whitt's discovery wasn't as interesting as his unusual makeup, alcohol-infused breath and the drug pipe reportedly found in his gold purse.

Whitt, 59, was wearing makeup that made him look like a masked robber when he approached the trooper at about 4 a.m. Monday outside the Merritt Island restaurant.

Whitt also also had an image of a rabbit painted on his cheek.

The Merritt Island island man spontaneously insisted the trooper should inspect his bag on his right arm and was charged with possessing drug paraphernalia after the trooper found the pipe, a report said.

It had marijuana residue on it, the report said.

The trooper also found "assorted makeup and other personal products normally used by females."

Whitt said this about the pipe: "That's mine, I use it as an incense burner to burn "Mojo'" or synthetic marijuana, according to the FHP report.

Whitt, who is on probation for DUI, was arrested and taken to theBrevard County jail.

He has a history of drug-related arrests. The report does not explain why Whitt was wearing makeup.
