A Georgia Health Sciences University lab tech was jailed this week after he was discovered intoxicated with his pants down in a campus locker room.
Two lab monkeys were found outside their cages, authorities said. According to the incident report, a co-worker discovered Coley Mitchell, 32, partially unclothed in the Lab Animal Services Technician locker room about 10:30 p.m. Monday.
Campus police said Mitchell, a Lab Animal Services Technician employee, was highly intoxicated and sitting in a chair with his pants half-down.
Two monkeys were found outside their cages in the lab but were confined to the room. There is no indication the monkeys had been harmed.
Mitchell became combative and uncooperative with officers while being escorted from the locker room.
He was booked into the Richmond County jail Monday on charges of public intoxication.
A spokeswoman said Mitchell was still employed by Georgia Health Sciences University on Friday.
