NORTH OLMSTED, Ohio -- North Olmsted police found former Brook Park mayor Tom Coyne nude on the side of a road early Monday morning.
Officers said Coyne, 54, was lying on the ground on Columbia Road at about 2 a.m. He was said to be unresponsive. "It looked like his pants were down around his ankles," said resident Ray Glessman, who found Coyne. Police do not believe foul play was involved. They suspect alcohol played a part. Coyne was transported to Fairview General Hospital where he was treated and released. The case is under investigation. Coyne faces misdemeanor charges and could be in trouble for parole violations. Coyne spent three days in jail in March after being pulled over last year for drunken driving. He was also ordered to check into a five-day inpatient alcohol assessment program to determine if he has a drinking problem.
