A Fredericksburg man went a bit far in an apparent attempt to beat the heat, police said.

Nathaniel Agnew, 33, was arrested yesterday when he was spotted walking around the Mayfield area naked, police spokeswoman Natatia Bledsoe said.

Agnew was charged with indecent exposure and public intoxication.

According to Bledsoe, police began getting a number of calls about 9:40 p.m. regarding an unclothed man.

An officer went to the Dixon Street 7–Eleven, where a pile of clothes was found outside the store.

Bledsoe said the clerk told the officer that the suspect had come inside naked, walked around for a short time, then left. He neither purchased nor said anything.

Police found the nude man walking on nearby Airport Avenue near Duke Street. They returned what police assumed were his clothes and made him get into the back of the police cruiser.

Bledsoe said the suspect was compliant but offered no explanation for being outside naked.

Agnew, who has a lengthy criminal record, was placed in the Rappahannock Regional Jail under a $1,000 bond.

I wonder if he had left his shirt and shoes on if he would have legal. After all, that is the only thing the signs ever say we have to wear.

naked shopping, then they can be sure you didn't put anything in your pockets. They are still working on where you will carry your money and a coin for the scratch off lotto games.
