I wonder if any one feared his loaded gun??

Naked man arrested for bank robbery

CBC News

Burnaby RCMP say a shameless bank robber resorted to an unusual — and ultimately unsuccessful — diversionary tactic as he tried to elude them on Wednesday.

The incident began at about 12:30 p.m., when a man entered a bank in the 1900-block of Willingdon Avenue and demanded money.

As he fled the scene on foot, police say the man shed his clothes before attempting to flag down a passing cab.

When the taxi driver refused to stop for the naked man, police say the suspect streaked on foot toward the Gilmore SkyTrain station.

Pursing officers tackled him before he reached the station.

A 27-year-old man of no fixed address was taken into custody. He was scheduled to appear in court Thursday.
