Naked 'Terminator' arrested at casino

A 19-year-old man awaits a court appearance after being arrested on suspicion of running naked through the Stateline casino area on Lake Tahoe's south shore.

Douglas County sheriff's deputies say Sean Stanley Smith was arrested before a group of startled children in the Harrah's Tahoe arcade.

He reportedly told officers that he had used marijuana and LSD, and was running naked because he thought he was the "Terminator."



Deputies say the suspect was spotted running by the Pony Express statue outside Harrah's on Tuesday afternoon, and entered the casino after ignoring an officer's command to stop.

After a deputy used a Taser to subdue him, the suspect was covered with bedsheets and taken to jail.

He was booked on charges of indecent exposure and resisting a police officer.
