Three deliverymen yesterday testified in municipal court to seeing an off-duty Edison police officer run away naked after the car he was driving struck their truck less than a mile from the township police headquarters.
In the first day of a trial for officer Ionnis Mpletsakis, three deliverymen testified that moments after their truck was struck in the rear by a car on Route 27 on July 20, 2005, the driver ran to the front of the truck in the nude, momentarily looked at the damage, then fled toward a nearby building.
Mpletsakis told police that shortly before the crash, he had been swimming at a friend's house and as he left to drive home, he took off his wet shorts and drove home naked because he didn't want to get the car seat wet.
