A Florida man who allegedly stole a car, killed a dog -- and possibly chickens -- and chased a man with an ax was found naked in a chicken coop Tuesday, police said.
John Mehne, 25, of Sarasota, Fla., was arrested Tuesday after New York State Police responded to a call about an Audi, parked facing the wrong direction, on Interstate 81, roughly three miles from the Pennsylvania border.
Investigators discovered the vehicle was reported stolen in Sarasota. Mehne had allegedly been driving the Audi when he crashed it into a guardrail. He then tried to hop on the back of a van, failed, then jumped onto the back of a pickup truck before that driver pulled over, allowing Mehne to flee into the woods, police said in a news release.
A search by the state police and the Broome County Sheriff's Office ensued and, later that day, state police received a call from a man who "came home from work and found Mehne in his chicken coop."
Mehne, when asked what he was doing, allegedly said he was "killing the chickens." State police said Mehne chased the man with an ax and rode off after stealing an ATV, which he later abandoned.
Soon after, authorities said they received another call about a naked man in another chicken coop -- which is where Mehne was arrested. The 25-year-old was bitten by a police K-9 officer in the process.
Authorities later learned that Mehne allegedly broke into a home in the area and killed a family dog.
Mehne was transported to a hospital for treatment, booked, and remanded at the Broome County Jail on no bail.

I hope his process hurts like hell.
Sounds more like a Florida Man Road Trip.
“And then on day three we finds us a chicken coop....”
Sounds like a Country song.
That’s what they call an average Tuesday
Just another day in the life of Florida Man.
Actually, this only accounts for a little over an hour of the day - just what he got caught doing.
Normal Florida day anymore.
There’s not enough hours in the day for Florida Man to get into so much mischief!
He was naked...
Florida men (and women) also have to deal with some of the Country's biggest bugs. (And many of those bugs fly around all over the place, and make weird noises!)
Until the munchies kick in ....
Overrrun by yankees.
It's the way it's reported.
"he is from Florida, Yeah he deserves to be in the bad place"
Yep, typical day in Florida.......
Was he high on Flakka ?
They booked him???? Can’t anybody do what they want to do anymore?
You shoot it. Bang. Dead.
Still waiting for the HBO series “Texas Woman and Florida Man”.
Bath salts must be on sale this week, they are having a “special”.
