A man was found wandering naked in a Florida neighborhood, rampaging through homes and causing damage. Residents expressed relief that no one was hurt during the unsettling event.
This man, later identified as 23-year-old Joshua Garrison, was recorded by security cameras in Pinellas Park, near St. Petersburg. He was seen engaging in inappropriate behavior and causing quite a mess.
“I was asleep when the doorbell rang,” recounted neighbor David Dale. “I opened the door, and there he was—completely naked.” Now, that’s a wake-up call.
Dale went on to describe further chaos: “He threw a plant pot through my truck’s window and yanked out the light fixture in front of my house.” Not exactly what you’d expect during an ordinary night.
Another local reported that Garrison attempted to break a window screen, fled to the backyard, and even engaged in sexual acts before returning with a weapon. “He went into my shed, grabbed an axe, and emerged through the back door,” Thomas Reischman shared. “I can’t figure out why he didn’t use it.” His back door was unlocked, which adds another layer of concern.
The video showed Garrison even helping himself to drinks from an outdoor refrigerator, before leaping over Reischman’s six-foot fence and disappearing into the night.
Residents are understandably rattled by this bizarre series of events. Some mentioned they were armed and ready to protect their homes. “We’re all Second Amendment folks around here. He was lucky we didn’t wake up,” commented one neighbor, keeping it real.
Authorities apprehended Garrison, thought to be homeless, on Tuesday after receiving reports of a break-in on October 7. He faces multiple charges, including armed burglary, lewd conduct, and criminal mischief, among others.
