OKLAHOMA CITY, - Authorities in Oklahoma said a man who crashed into a parking lot walked into a jail and offered a stick he called the "last tree in the universe" as payment.

Oklahoma County sheriff's deputies said Rondell Bailey walked into the downtown Oklahoma City jail with a stick and told deputies he wanted to offer the object, which he called the "last tree in the universe," in exchange for dropping any possible charges against him, KOCO-TV, Oklahoma City, reported Wednesday.

The deputies said Bailey left after being told the stick was not an acceptable form of payment and threw a brick through a jail window.

Investigators said they discovered a white powder suspected to be methamphetamine during a search of the suspect's truck.

Bailey was arrested on destruction of property and drug charges.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

How did he manage that ???

parking lots are flat and on the ground in TN...

We drive on them here...

Last time I was in Oklahoma City was 1998..

The parking lots were the same as here then but they could have changed over the years...

Well, strictly speaking, if it’s just a stick, it’s not really a tree anymore.

The guy knew he was going out on a limb with the offering, but police said he was barking up the wrong tree.
