A New Mexico truck driver is facing charges after authorities said he exposed himself to a woman inside a New Jersey Wal-Mart, wandered around the store in a loincloth, began masturbating and then urinated on the floor and himself when police went to take him into custody.
Authorities said they were called to the Teterboro Wal-Mart early on Tuesday after a woman there reported that the trucker exposed himself.
Officers looked at live surveillance cameras and found the man wandering around the store using only hanging cloths to cover his lower half.
Authorities said he periodically moved the cloths to expose himself and at one point began masturbating in front of customers.
Security guards and officers eventually tracked the man down, and authorities said the man began to quickly walk away but continued to masturbate.
Officers said they then tackled the man to the ground, and he urinated on himself and the floor.
It’s not clear why the trucker, who was charged with lewdness and released on $1,000 bail, was acting in such a way.
