Lt. Andrew Longuski and Detective Sgt. Derrick Jordan, who both work in the Polygraph Section of the Biometrics and Identification Division of the Michigan State [Police](http://time.com/5322172/hero-dog-police-spain/ "undefined"), were attending a training conference in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula when they got into a bit of trouble. The two polygraph experts were busted for taking a bicycle with a pink seat on a late-night joyride between bars on Mackinac Island, [the _Detroit News_ reports](https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/2018/06/25/2-michigan-state-police-troopers-charged-mackinac-bike-joyride/732487002/ "undefined"). As the island does not allow motorized vehicles, people usually travel by bicycle, foot, or tandems, which is why according to the _News,_ Longuski allegedly rolled up to Jordan on bicycle and offered him a ride to a new watering hole. Witnesses spotted the polygraphers “double riding” the bike down the streets and were busted late in the evening of May 18 by a state trooper. Turns out that the bike that Longuski and Jordan had allegedly been cruising around on was not theirs and the owners wanted it back. Things allegedly got a bit heated between all [the law enforcement officers](http://time.com/police-shootings-justice-department-civil-rights-investigations/ "undefined"). The [officers](http://time.com/5322269/texas-police-officers-lip-sync-battle/ "undefined") were arraigned in the 92nd District Court of Mackinac County on the misdemeanor charges of Larceny Under $200 and Disorderly Conduct for their actions, according to a statement received by _TIME_ from the Michigan State Police. The misdemeanors are punishable by fines and up to 93 days in jail. According to the _News_, both men pleaded not guilty at their arraignments on May 30 and were released on bond. They will both be back in court in July. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5323638/police-take-joy-ride/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5323638/police-take-joy-ride/"},"headline":"Two Cops Went on a Very Silly Joy Ride on a Pink-Seated Bicycle","datePublished":"2018-06-27T17:15:23.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:53:34.318Z","description":"A pink-seated bicycle was involved","url":"https://time.com/5323638/police-take-joy-ride/","keywords":["Newsfeed","police","Bizarre"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5323638/police-take-joy-ride/","name":"Two Cops Went on a Very Silly Joy Ride on a Pink-Seated Bicycle"}}]}] ```
