Naked man running on Langford road stops traffic, detained by police

A naked man running down a Langford road stopped traffic and turned heads Friday afternoon (Oct. 24). A Goldstream Gazette reporter at the scene saw the man, wearing only a pair of socks, attempting to open the passenger door of a moving vehicle as it approached the Peatt Road and Goldstream Avenue crossroads. The driver of the vehicle – a Rogers branded truck – blasted his horn repeatedly while the man ran alongside shouting. West Shore RCMP quickly turned up on the scene, restraining the man before putting him in one of the four cruisers. Traffic came to a halt at the intersection while RCMP dealt with the incident – the Rogers truck appeared to leave the scene. West Shore RCMP has been approached for comment.
