Naked man arrested after trying out pharmacy's dog beds

Customers at a CVS pharmacy in Florida received a surprise on Tuesday when a man stripped naked and began trying out merchandise. The display unfolded just before 8pm at the Land O’ Lakes store, according to the Pasco County sheriff’s office.

The man, deputies say, walked into the store and headed toward the bathroom. Once there, deputies say the man stripped out of his clothing and then exited the facilities to go into the main part of the store.



Stark naked, the man “proceeded to rummage through 6 dog beds, grabbing 3 and laying on top of them,” a probable cause affidavit stated. Jeremiah Phillip Patterson, 22, was charged with lewd or lascivious exhibition and retail petty theft once law enforcement was called to the scene.

The petty theft charge, the report stated, stems from the fact the naked act was “damaging” to the dog beds and deprived CVS from the ability to sell the items. Patterson, who has no known address, is being held at the Pasco County Jail Tuesday in lieu of $300 bond.
