Sinfully Naked Florida Man Arrested for Stealing Clothes From Church Store
I’ve seen some strange things in my time. Once after church in North Fort Myers, I saw a man doing some tai chi exercises dressed like a baby. Now that was weird. But at least that dude had enough sense to wear a diaper. Plus, diapers are expensive. So at least he had it together enough to afford one. Unlike 38-year-old Michael Da Costa. According to Fox35, the Ocala Florida man allegedly stormed into the Wings of Faith Thrift Store completely naked.
The Marion County Sheriff’s Office responded to reports of a “naked man running around everywhere.” So the deputies, armed with descriptions of Da Costa’s distinctive appearance, tracked him down about a mile away. His explanation? He supposedly ran away from somewhere in the buff and decided to raid the thrift store for clothes. Seems legit so far. I wouldn’t want to be running around without pants. Right?
Here’s where it gets weird. Da Costa, in his birthday suit, walked into the store without a single care in the world. The thrift shop’s clerk, attempting to shield the world from his sin, handed him some shorts, only to witness him snatch a T-shirt as he went out the door. Oh, and he was still completely naked!
The clerk definitely didn’t find Michael’s strip show funny. They wanted to file for criminal charges due to unholy exposure of his sinful parts. Meanwhile, the store manager wanted him charged for the theft of a $5 T-shirt. Obviously, the church store is there to clothe the less fortunate, not give free shirts to naked people. Da Costa’s little shopping spree didn’t end well either. He was swiftly taken over to the Marion County Jail, where he now faces a $6,000 bond. On the bright side, the jail was happy to give him some free clothes to wear.
