I drove up to Portland with my mother on Easter Sunday. We kept dodging the cop cars that zoomed past us for at least forty minutes. My mother kept thinking she was being pulled over, so it was fun watching her curse and shout obscenities at them in the confines of the vehicle where only I was privy to her nerves and exasperation. Eventually the traffic bottlenecked and all five police cars had surrounded a red car on the median. I grabbed my camera, but unfortunately it did not capture the naked man who had his bare arse facing the traffic as he was handcuffed, sprawled face first in the grass.
I presumed he had been strip searched, although I was puzzled over why it had been carried out in that manner in full view. But at the time I didn’t care. I was laughing too hard. My mother was talking incredulously, telling me over and over “Alex, that’s a naked man being arrested. Why is he naked?” As if I could answer the question. I found the story online. Evidently he threw his clothes and a baby seat out the window while he was driving attempting to ram people off the road. When he became stuck he ran out of the car and took off the rest of his garments before he was immobilized with a taser and restrained. It was a fun morning.
