Naked probation officer roughs up cop
From our sister paper, the Long Beach Press-Telegram, we offer you this flat-out bizarre story of a man, a cop, no clothes and an arrest.
LONG BEACH - The belligerent, naked man accused of assaulting a Long Beach police officer near a popular Westside delicatessen last week is a Los Angeles County probation officer, authorities said Friday.
Jermaine Marcus Walton of Long Beach has been charged with assault on a peace officer, resisting an executive officer and two counts of felony vandalism. Charges were lodged Sept. 21 - Walton's 31st birthday.
Officials with the Los Angeles County Probation Department were unavailable to comment Friday, but Long Beach Police Cmdr. Laura Farinella confirmed that Walton was a "new probation officer" assigned to the Los Angeles area.

I don't know what circumstances led to Mr. Walton's alleged adventure, but whatever the case, it sounds like he had one heck of a bad birthday.
