Here's an example: On Jan. 27 at 3:30 a.m., two officers saw a man jogging at a corporate campus at 15320 Northeast 40th St. When the man ran under a streetlight, they noticed something interesting about the lone runner - his buttocks were bare.

On closer inspection, they confirmed that the man was fully nude, except for a pair of Sketchers running shoes. They stopped the man and had him come inside their patrol car to warm up. The two officers asked the man why he was running naked, and he told told them he was trying to build up his immune system.
