Police in Florida were stunned by the honesty of a man who, on an arrest report, acknowledged that "drug dealer" is his occupation. 

According to the Palm Beach Post, Robert Phillips, 25, of West Palm Beach, Fla. was arrested on Tuesday after nearly causing a car accident by swerving in front of a Palm Beach County Sheriff's vehicle. After determining that Phillips was driving a stolen vehicle, police followed Phillips and watched him complete a drug transaction. 

Afterwards, more deputies followed him until he sought refuge inside of a store. In his haste to escape, he collided with an employee, dropping a loaded gun in the process. Police recovered 22 grams of heroin and $2,316 from Phillips, and found over five grams of crack, hypodermic needles, and a scale in the vehicle. 

Phillips, who has been arrested over a dozen times in Palm Beach County, faces several drug charges.
