BROWNSVILLE, Texas (ValleyCentral) — An IDEA Frontier employee has been placed on administrative leave after police say he was allegedly driving around naked in Brownsville.

Police arrested Luis Rodolfo Larrazolo, 44, after a concerned citizen reported a man "driving around naked in his vehicle" on Oct. 17, according to a news release from the Brownsville Police Department.

According to police, Larrazolo allegedly lowered his car window and exposed himself to the person who reported him to police.

Larrazolo was also reportedly seen engaging in lewd behavior, police say.

A photo of Larrazolo and a description of his vehicle led police to track him down at a traffic stop, where he was seen putting on a shirt with his pants unzipped.

Larrazolo was placed under arrest for indecent exposure and immediately taken to the Brownsville city jail, where he was issued a $2,500 bond.

IDEA Frontier confirmed to ValleyCentral that Larrazolo was the assistant principal at the K-12 charter campus.
