Police: Naked Man Fires Gun at Traffic

Thu Dec 1, 6:32 AM ET

GERMANTOWN, Tenn. - A man wearing only socks was arrested along a busy street after witnesses said he fired a gun at afternoon traffic.

Temperatures were in the 40s when the incident occurred Tuesday. Police said no witnesses were injured.

Glenn Higgs, 44, of Germantown, was charged with reckless endangerment, indecent exposure, firing a weapon in the city limits and public intoxication, authorities said.

"I couldn't believe it," said Eddie Cox, who was driving home from the bank when he saw the naked gunman in this Memphis suburb.

Cox called police, who arrested Higgs at the scene and found a revolver in a nearby yard.

Higgs was sent to a hospital for a foot injury sustained when he earlier jumped from the second story of his home, authorities said.

Could have been a "pump" shot gun...?

[OleMissRebelYell]

This happened about 5 minutes from my house. The dude also broke his ankle when he jumped out of his 2nd story window, before running into the street to shoot off his gun.

I can fire two shots with mine

I just need 8 hours sleep between shots

Temperatures were in the 40's

Given that, he probably didn't do himself proud..if you know what I mean.

His 44 shrunk to a 22 because of the cold weather.

**sheesh**

You are definitely OFF my Christmas list

[Labyrinthos]

Maybe he was shooting blanks.

[Maximus of Texas]

"You are definitely OFF my Christmas list"

You're still on mine and, from a stalker's viewpoint, that's all that matters. (insert evil laugh)

[EX52D]

I think this would qualify as "bad naked"...

[Millee]

At 40 degrees, I bet he was shooting blanks! ;o)

[Maximus of Texas]

That's one question we'll have to ask God when we get to Heaven.... "Lord, why in cold weather does the female gain two bullets but males lose their gun?. Something's not right there."

[PaulaB]

You're still on mine and, from a stalker's viewpoint, that's all that matters

I'll take that as a compliment...

Polishing gun as we speak

[Maximus of Texas]

"Polishing gun as we speak"

Police said no witnesses were injured, although several female bystanders were observed stifling giggles.



"I was in the pool!!"

[PaulaB]

[jmc813]

Hurry, ping the liberaltarians!

Did you know that Ronald Reagan called libertarianism the "heart and soul of conservatism"?

[Know your rights]

This guy didn't hurt anybody

He put others at risk, which I oppose ... and did so apparently under the influence of the legal drug alcohol. Are you calling for a war on that drug?
