A disturbance occurred yesterday, February 25, in Chachoengsao province when police responded to reports of a man walking naked in the local Somdet Phra Srinagarindra Park. Upon arrival, officers found a man, identified only as Prasit, wearing only socks and holding a hat. Police escorted him away from other visitors while arranging clothing for him.

Authorities revealed that Prasit, a thin-built individual, struggled to communicate clearly during questioning, only stating that his clothes had been stolen. Earlier in the morning, a Chachoengsao City Municipality worker noticed Prasit sitting on a bench outside a women’s toilet. Upon returning, the worker found him undressed and alone, causing concerned park visitors, including children, to distance themselves.

Regular park visitor Chaiyachet, age 51, informed police that he had seen Prasit frequently in the park, usually clothed and calmly walking around. Chaiyachet noted that a local vendor had earlier observed Prasit wearing only a shirt and one shoe, speculating whether Prasit's unusual behavior was due to intoxication or heat. Police have taken Prasit to Mueang Chachoengsao Police Station and are attempting to contact his relatives.

If his relatives cannot be reached, Prasit will undergo a mental health assessment and treatment at Sothon Hospital. This procedure aims to determine any underlying issues or needs for Prasit's welfare and safety, reported The Thaiger.

Key Takeaways

• Police responded swiftly to an unusual disturbance at a local park.

• Witnesses observed the man behaving erratically, likely needing assistance.

Will the evidence stand up in court?

In other news, a performance of The Emperor’s New Clothes was brought to a premature halt when Chachoengsao police intervened following complaints from the public - the willy too free, the dong too long, the gear too queer, the rocket too out-of-pocket, the rod too broad, the staff too daft, the crown too down, the bone overthrown.

This reminds me of a personal anecdote.

One year for vacation, we went to Hawai'i because US Immigration would not permit us to leave the US while our green card applications were being processed.

There was a well-known nude beach in Maui. Busts every day for public nudity.

Have to climb over a cliff. I was too lazy. So I lay down on the sand starkers reading James Michener's Hawaii (not lie!) Fat little cop trundles by, tells me to put on my suit.

And I did. Meanwhile, he climbed the cliff and came back across the sand with a line of naturists in tow.

He specifically can past me, told me I was too stupid to leave so I was under arrest, too.

At that point, I ran down to the water & chucked my suit in. I was the only one who made him arrest them naked. Booked naked, wife & kids came to bail me out...still naked.

We were leaving to go back to California. I bet there's still an outstanding warrant for me somewhere in Hawai'i. Come get me, coppers!
