Man bites dog

Naked Jesus


 

A 44-year-old Pleasant Grove, Utah, man woke up one morning, revealed to his mother that he's Jesus Christ and ordered her to leave the house. It's a good thing Mary didn't react the same way, because in William Bolick's case, his mom called the cops. Bolick didn't seem to care, until Officer Shane Fredrickson arrived.

Fredrickson tried to subdue the visibly enraged Bolick with his Tazer, but it had no effect on the Son of Man, who attacked Fredrickson, chomped on his finger and ran away.

Police trailed Bolick to his mobile home, where he locked himself inside, reportedly arguing with God for an hour before stepping out to meet officers, buck-naked.

Officers had to wrestle Bolick to the ground before transporting him to a hospital for evaluation. Pleasant Grove police chief Tom Paul admitted the incident "wasn't at all what I had in mind for today."
