WHEELING, W.Va. -- Patrick Tribett, the gold-faced man with a nationally-known mug shot, has been arrested for at least the sixth time on suspicion of huffing paint.

Tribett, who is in his 40s, has been arrested on charges of huffing paint at least six times. He's had a history of huffing paint -- and being caught -- since 1998.

On Wednesday, police said he was having a hard time walking, seemed intoxicated and had gold paint all over his face. He was arrested and charged with inhaling intoxicants and remains in the Northern Regional Jail on $1,000 bond.

In July, the McMechan man was charged with public intoxication after police said he was staggering on Market Street near 15th Street in Wheeling.

In June 2006, Wheeling police said they found Tribett on 16th and Main Streets intoxicated and covered in paint. He was charged with public intoxication.

A week prior to that arrest, police found Tribett huffing paint under the Interstate 470 bridge.

Police said when they found him, Tribett looked right at them but continued huffing. At that time, police said Tribett's mouth and clothes were covered in gold paint, Tribett was also arrested in July 2005 when police found him covered in gold paint, attempting to buy more at a Dollar General in Bellaire. Soon after, his mug shot received national attention.

Police said Tribett was arrested on similar charges in 1998.
