Last-minute Christmas shoppers at a Hobby Lobby store in Florida were met with an unusual sight when a naked man caused "chaos" by running around the building.
A witness told News 13 that the man "took his clothes off outside of a nearby dental office and ran into the Hobby Lobby," leaving people in the store unsure what to do. Local 12 reported that the man unleashed a "panic" by sprinting around the store. He ended up being tased by police twice, according to that station.
“I was checking out in the line over here at the Hobby Lobby. And I turned around, and there was a butt-naked guy coming at us. They’re trying to get the customers to check out. I was like, I just wanted to leave. I don’t need my gifts anymore. I’m good. I’ll get them at Walmart,” witness Billy Lee said to the News 13 television station.
“All the employees ran to the back, and I said, Can I run back there with you? And they said, Yeah, come on, come on. I ran back there, and then he came right back there after me. And then I ran to the opposite side, and then he came in a circle and ran right after me and grabbed me twice,” witness Portia Mixon told News 13, which reported that Panama City police rushed to the scene.
According to WJHG, the man was eventually named as Zyreese Guy and was cited for indecent exposure, among other charges.
Guy "tried to interact with customers inside the store while he was naked," that station reported that police reports allege. "Guy pushed past someone who was trying to shield other customers and elbowed that person in the jaw." The Hobby Lobby is located in Panama City, Florida.
