An angry naked martial arts expert took on four policemen in a street fight, wresting one of their batons away and withstanding two Taserings before being finally subdued, in New York state on Sunday.

'It was sort of a police officer's worst nightmare,' commented local Police Chief Louis Alagno

The naked incident started on Sunday evening, when a naked man, later identified as 28-year-old Peter Lu, started banging on a woman's door in Chappaqua, New York for no apparent reason.

The woman called police – but when Officer Frank Cavallaro arrived at the aptly named Hardscrabble Road, Lu charged at him, nakedly. Cavallaro responded by Tasering him.

By this point, Lu was on the ground, still naked. Cavallaro ordered him to put his hands behind his back, so he could be handcuffed, but Lu refused. More Tasering ensued – but rather than subduing Lu, this seemed only to enrage him.

He fought back at Cavallaro, disabling the Taser by knocking the cartridge out of his hand, and then disarming the officer of his baton when he tried to swing that.
