Andrew Arnold: Nekkid cellular tower hyjinx

[Jaded]

A Collin County man’s cellphone reception might have been clearer than his thinking last night.

The 23-year-old stripped naked and climbed a cellular tower in the small town of Lowry Crossing.

Princeton resident Andrew Arnold is in the Collin County jail today.

For reasons he has yet to explain to authorities, he spent seven hours in the buff on the cellphone tower.

About 4:40 p.m. Wednesday, authorities said, Collin County sheriff's deputies approached Mr. Arnold after they'd gotten several calls about a man acting strangely.

He ran away from the deputies.

Initially, witnesses said, Mr. Arnold was wearing only jeans.

But by the time he jumped a fence and climbed 15 feet up the tower, officers said, he had disrobed entirely.

Sheriff's Lt. John Norton said a negotiator was called to the scene, and Mr. Arnold finally agreed to descend shortly before midnight.

He was charged with criminal trespass, disorderly conduct and fleeing from police.

Maybe he was planning to steal some copper. lol

Hell, all the cops would have had to do was pick up his jeans and get his wallet to find out who he was if he had got away.
