A Florida man celebrated his birthday by taking large quantities of methamphetamine, stealing a tour train, and then picked up passengers on said tour train. 

Police in Key West, Florida, were called to the Conch Tour Train Depot on July 4th. 

When officers arrived on the scene, they were met by confused and shocked employees who shared an incredible story.

According to employees, 57-year-old Johnathan Winslow rolled up to the depot in a Kia  with his music blaring. Police noted that the Kia was still running with music playing when they arrived on the scene.

Winslow reportedly popped out of his Kia and informed employees he used to work there.  He then told employees he wanted to tour a train before jumping on a train and taking off. 

Luckily, employees were already tracking the train's location and informed officers it was in the downtown area. 

As officers arrived at the downtown area, they found the train abandoned on the street.  They learned Winslow had picked up two random passengers before deciding his shift was over and walking away from the train.

Police began to canvas the area, and it wasn't long before they discovered Winslow at the buoy indicating the southern most point of the Continental USA. He had such a busy birthday.

Officers reported Winslow was speaking very fast and excitedly as he told his version of events. He pleaded his case to authorities, saying it was his birthday, and he had only "borrowed the train". He went on to explain that it was "all fine" because he used to work for Conch Tour Train services. 

Unfortunately for him, Winslow's birthday explanation didn't work. While being arrested officers found a meth pipe and methamphetamine in his pockets. 

Winslow was charged with burglary, grand theft auto, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
