It started with a dare.
When it ended early this morning, a naked man was bruised and a man who claimed he was a drill sergeant was under arrest for shooting a gun toward the naked man.
"Just when you thought you had heard everything,'' Ann Arbor Detective Sgt. Jim Stephenson said.
An Ann Arbor couple said they were inside their apartment in the 1500 block of Pauline Boulevard discussing marriage just after midnight. The woman said she wasn't sure if she was ready, and her boyfriend responded that taking risks is an important part of life, police reports said.
To prove his point, the boyfriend hopped out of the first-floor window on a dare and streaked naked across the street, police said. But before he could cross back to the residence, he noticed a couple walking down the sidewalk, so he hid in the bushes to avoid them, reports said.
The 28-year-old Ann Arbor man who happened to be walking his friend home noticed the bushes rustling and feet underneath, so he pulled out his gun and ordered the naked man out, reports said. The naked man ran, and the chase was on.
The man with the gun, who claimed he was an Army drill sergeant, repeatedly ordered the naked man to the ground as he chased after him, threatening to shoot him, reports said. The gunman then fired off a round, and the naked man hit the ground, causing minor injuries, reports said.
A nearby resident called police to report a naked man being chased by a man with a gun, reports said.
Officers soon arrived and arrested the gunman. He does not appear to be in the Army and does not have a permit to carry his .40-caliber handgun, police said. He was lodged at the county jail on charges of aggravated assault and carrying a concealed weapon.
The naked man was treated for minor injuries, but was not arrested.
It's also not known whether the couple plans to marry.
NEVER take a dare... it just isn't a good idea.
*chuckle*
Send this lad a Mensa application.
Only minor injuries... hmph. She might want to think twice before getting married. :P
Unless, of course, it's a triple-dog-dare. Then there's really no alternative.

No justification to open fire. What deadly threat is posed by a fleeing, nude man? None.
As to the nude dude, umm, well... ~ This is my rifle, this is my gun... ~
That, in a nutshell, is the story of my life.
And I'm always the naked guy.
Oh, brother. How original!
Besides, if it doesn't work out, you can always get divorced, right?
Except to go for the throat!
(Ahh.. A Christmas Story..)
naked man hiding in the bush..
o-kay
Until it was noted that the uniform code contains an exception for wearing the appropriate apparel when one is engaged in a sporting activity.
SD
Always? What does this tell us about you, Laz?
I personally have never streaked so of course I am not the best authority...
;o)
Drill Sgt in the army .....
At what Army base in Ann Arbor?
A GUN?
In the People's Republic of Ann Arbor???
I don't believe it!
Hard to say who was more stupid, the streaker courting major embarassment, or the fool with no permit for concealed carry waving it around for all to see, and then cranking off a round to make sure everyone knew.
Me either. And for that, I'm sure my neighbors are eternally grateful! ;o)
If you're double dog dared, you don't have a choice.
