A man was arrested and will be charged Friday after he dove naked into the aquarium at a Bass Pro Shop in Leeds, Alabama.
Leeds Police Chief Paul Irwin said the incident happened shortly before the store closed.
The 42-year-old man reportedly began acting erratically and intentionally drove a vehicle into a pole in the store parking lot, the chief said. The man’s family told police he suffers from mental illness.
After the crash, police said the suspect exited the vehicle, stripped his clothes off and ran into the Bass Pro Shop. Once inside, the man jumped into the aquarium.

Sorry, no I don’t. That is a sight best left unseen.
Okay - this was posted on a local news/weather page.
: “MY THOUGHTS ABOUT THE BASS PRO SHOP INCIDENT…
I admit that when I first heard about the guy taking his clothes off and jumping in the aquarium at Bass Pro Shop, I chuckled myself. However, shortly after hearing about it, two people “very closely related to me” told me they witnessed this event. They not only witnessed the event, but were the only people in the parking lot when this occurred around closing time. They called 911 and checked on the wife and child who were part of the wreck prior to the man going into the store. Mental health is a serious issue and I am confident the details would break your heart, just like it did mine.
According to the wife, this guy did not have a history of mental health issue. He was recently diagnosed with a common mental health diagnosis and had a horrible reaction to his meds. He was awaiting a a new mental health appointment a few months away. It was the earliest they could see him. It’s really scary!
They are a typical middle class family and he is a VETERAN.. ☹️ It’s not going to stop the laughs, but I wanted to give the other side. I can’t stop thinking about the small child who stayed with my family members until grandparents arrived. Social media will never go away and all of their lives are forever changed. Let’s pray for all of them. Feel free to share.
Maybe this post can go as far as the videos of him in the aquarium. 😢”
Meth is a bad habit. 😏
I did not see a root on him either.
Yep. And prob on meds. And that is the reason these people are crazy. Those meds.
to find such a relationship with a sharp-beaked creature may have consequences.
Good grief, get that man some tweezers. He is missing a few things. Maybe a pirannha was in that tank.
He is soooo gross. Poor fish.
Just another democrat voter
How much water will a Taser penetrate?
Will you feel the Taser shock if underwater?
Does being dripping wet enhance the Taser shock?
What a SICKO!!
the place looks like a casa bonita
Maybe America still has signs of life left.
In Alabama this won’t go over well,....at the Bas Pro in Ilinois the state government would give him an award.
Thank you for posting.
If these are indeed the circumstances, then this is a very, very sad incident. I would cry myself to sleep every night if this happened to my son.
Me too! Praying for him!
