The Oklahoma man arrested while driving with his dead wife’s body was wearing only his underwear — and apparently positioned the woman’s body upside-down in the passenger seat, police said.

Police in Eloy stopped Rodney Puckett, 70, on Monday after he was spotted outside a Carl’s Jr. restaurant near Interstate 10, southeast of Phoenix. An employee told a responding detective that two people had just pulled up to pick up their food while naked, police said in an updated statement released Tuesday.

“The position of the woman caused immediate concern because she laying with her head on the floorboard and her legs towards the headrest,” police said.

Puckett, who was wearing only his skivvies, told police that his 74-year-old wife, Linda, died while they were staying at a hotel in El Paso, Texas, and that he loaded her body onto a luggage cart before putting it into the couple’s car to continue on their trip.

“When Rodney was unable to wake Linda, he loaded her onto a luggage cart and then placed her in his vehicle,” the statement continued. “It is not clear what his intentions were at this point.”
