KEY WEST, Fla. (Reuters) - A drunken Florida prosecutor who streaked across a motel parking lot and mistakenly jumped into a stranger's car landed in the slammer, a state attorney's office spokesman said on Wednesday.

After tossing back a few drinks with colleagues last weekend, Monroe County assistant prosecutor Albert "A.J." Tasker, 28, stripped off his clothes as a prank and headed toward what he thought was a friend's vehicle. But Tasker jumped into the back seat of the wrong car, where a woman was waiting for her boyfriend. The woman screamed, the boyfriend arrived and Key West police arrested Tasker. "The devil made him do it," said Matt Helmerick, spokesman for the Monroe County state attorney in Key West. Tasker, who was hired in December, was jailed on misdemeanor charges of disorderly intoxication and exposure of sexual organs. He was released on bond and is on an unpaid leave of absence from his job pending an internal investigation. "It's embarrassing to us, it's embarrassing to him," Helmerick said. "If this guy had been a doctor or a janitor or a short-order cook, there would be no news."
