The commissioner of the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles was arrested Wednesday after police said he exposed himself to a plainclothes officer in a public restroom in downtown Indianapolis.

Andrew J. Miller, 40, of Carmel, was arrested on a charge of public indecency about 1:30 p.m. at Claypool Court, a retail and hotel center near the Circle Centre mall, authorities said.

A police report said Miller, who was inside a stall with a 4-foot door, touched his genitals in front of an officer and made eye contact with the officer. The report said Miller also asked if the officer wanted to go somewhere.

The officer and his partner, who were investigating complaints of lewd activity in the area, arrested Miller as he left the restroom, police said.

Marion County Jail spokesman Julio Fernandez said he didn't know if Miller had an attorney. Miller was being booked into the jail Wednesday night.

BMV spokesman Dennis Rosebrough and Gov. Mitch Daniels' spokeswoman, Jane Jankowski, said they didn't have enough information to comment.

A message seeking comment was left Wednesday night at a telephone listing for Miller in Carmel.

Miller was appointed BMV commissioner in December 2008 and has overseen changes in driver's license requirements aimed at reducing identity theft.

    And these people want this to be called "normal" or an acceptable behavior. Could be worse, for sure, for him to be a member of NAMBLA.

    Wierdohs......

    Gee - how many politicians, appointees and ministers across the country have to be arrested and in the media before these high profile perverts realize that public restroom exposure/pickups are probably not smart career moves. Find your man candy more discreetly.

  1. First, the Athenaeum is going to have to get past the hurdle with the Lockerbie residents and the agreement that the parcel would be residential. Second, and in my opinion, this prime piece of property should include parking, PLUS, a black box theater(s), some market rate and affordable artist housing and a plan to renovate and reconfigure the second story theater. I would negotiate to add the DeHaan property surface parking lot into the development mix, place a one story surface parking garage on the DeHaan lot on the street level (for the Dehaan tenants use during the daytime) and add a second story to the garage that would become an addition to the current second story theater and then change the direction of the theater by moving the stage across the alley and on top of the DeHaan lot parking. You can add all the stage elements that are currently missing from the Athenaeum stage to make it more attractive for use by Ballet, Opera and traveling productions. Plus, the theater changes would probably help solve some of the soundproofing issues. Alas,it does not seem to be a part of the strategic plan to conduct a study to determine best use of the property. Seems like the current plan is a quick and easy move that ignores the property best use/potential and any strategic property planning for the effect on future generations.

  2. I recall that MSA's pilings are still in the ground and hard to remove. It’s not likely any proposal will include significant underground construction/parking because of this. Start adding 2 floors of retail, 8 floors of parking and 5-10 floors of possible hotel, and/or 10-20 floors of residential, and you are at 30 floors already with possible expansion of all the uses. But then again I could be wrong.

  3. Accoriding to their website there is no deadline to the Do Not Call list. What is this article referring to??

  4. On what planet are they entitled to this largesse from the stockholders? These people make multi-million dollar salaries: Pay for your own personal travel.

  5. It matters because they're already paid enormously fat salaries: Pay for your own personal travel. Being "taxed on it" isn't a valid excuse--so what? They're still being gifted a raft of luxury perks from somebody else's money on top of an enormous, lavish salary.
