Naked Man On Cross Shuts Down La Brea



A naked man climbed onto a cross above a church on La Brea and West 9th St today. He stayed on the perch high above the street for about 7 hours before finally climbing down and being taken into custody. He was arrested on a vandalism charge, for s-reading his feces on the cross. Reports are that he will likely be held at a psychiatric hospital for 72 hours. No doubt one of the more bizarre scenes I've come across in my years covering Los Angeles.

WHAT THE HELL. That is most definitely my friend Navid. I've known him for the past six years. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

I just ran into him about three weeks ago at Amoeba. And I don't know how to process this.

Thats hilarious; I can only imagine the kind of jokes that were aimed at the swat team that had to cover the naked poop smearing guy. I have to agree with him though, religion is malarkey.
