A Southern California man newly released from prison is facing charges of being n?ked in public and having a 6-inch awl concealed in his backside.
Police in El Cerrito, Calif., were summoned Thursday morning with reports of a n?ked man mast-er ?? ing on a tree stump near a rapid transit stop, the Contra Costa Times, a California newspaper, reported Monday.
Police located and arrested John Sheehan, 33, on a charge indecent exposure, and before seating him in a cruiser, Sgt. Paul Keith asked him if he had anything on him that police should know about.
Detective Don Horgan said Sheehan volunteered that he had a 6-inch awl wrapped in electrical tape in his an?l cavity. Keith summoned the fire department, who declined to extricate the tool, and an ambulance was then called.
However, Horgan said Sheehan volunteered to remove the tool himself and did so at gunpoint. He offered no explanation as to why the awl was there, the report said.
Police added one felony count of possessing a concealed weapon to his arrest sheet, Horgan said.
