A Wyoming man who told police an alien invasion was coming and that he had traveled back in time to warn people was — shockingly — arrested for public intoxication.
Casper, Wyoming, police say the man they encountered at 10:30 p.m. Monday claimed he was from the year 2048, The Associated Press reported.
KTWO-AM in Casper reports that the man told police that he wanted to warn the people of Casper that aliens will arrive next year, and that they should leave as soon as possible. He asked to speak to the president of the town, about 170 miles northwest of Cheyenne.
The man told police he was only able to time travel because aliens filled his body with alcohol.
He noted that he was supposed to be transported to the year 2018, not this year.
