GREER, S.C. (WSPA) – A naked man is accused of stealing an ambulance Wednesday and crashing it into a pole in Greer.

According to the Greer Police Department, officers were called to a report of a suspicious man banging on the front door of a home on Tryon Street shortly before 11:30 a.m.

Arriving officers found the naked man under the home who they said appeared to be under the influence of drugs.

Greenville County EMS was called to the scene to provide medical care for the man.

After officers left the scene, police said the man became combative, hitting and kicking one of the EMS members.

Greer Police said the man was able to get into the driver’s seat of the ambulance and drove away.

Responding officers spotted the stolen ambulance near South Buncombe Road and Hood Road.

While attempting to catch up to the ambulance, officers spotted it driving through a field before it crossed South Suber Road and struck a utility pole near Clement Road.

Police were then able to take the man, identified as 35-year-old Jamario Marquis Bowens of Greenville, into custody.

Bowens is charged with Carjacking, Grand Larceny, first degree Assault & Battery, Resisting Arrest, Driving Under the Influence, and Reckless Driving.

Police said Bowens was taken to the hospital following the crash but was not hurt in the crash.

"Why would the officers leave?"

Perhaps the "Hot and Ready" sign was on at the local Kryspe Kreme?

If there’s nudity involved it was meth. Meth heads love to take their clothes off.

I amend my previous statement. It would seem a more potent form of bath salts, known as “flakka” is responsible. It is also known as “$5 psychosis” by the cops.

I just paid a visit to my Ancestry DNA account. My latest reported ethnicity:

England, NW Europe26%
Scotland23%
Ireland16%
Sweden & Denmark5%
Finland2%

It's a moving target. Still enough Irish to celebrate St Patrick's day.

I happened upon another "naked man" news story. This one was seen running from a shop with a "battered sausage". That sounded a bit graphic until I realized the tale was from the UK and the "battered sausage" was what we call a "corn dog" in the US.

“Cocaine intoxication”, usually followed by a naked romp in a frantic search for pool, surf, or lake.

The reason I said flakka was a web search with results as long as my arm that detailed those so intoxicated whipping off their clothes prior to police contact. Both are CNS stimulants so the causation seems similar.

If you tally up Scotland, Wales and Ireland, that’s bare minimum 2/3rds Celt. I’d say you’re on solid ground there.

The home appeared to be under the influence of drugs?
