Naked man faces charges from BPD

A Bloomington man faces various preliminary charges after police saw him running through downtown streets naked.\nShortly after 1 a.m. Sunday, Bloomington Police Department officers Cody Decker and Shane Rasche saw a man wearing only a baseball cap run south on Dunn Street at the intersection with Kirkwood Avenue right in front of their squad car, Detective Sgt. David Drake said, reading from a police report. The officers turned their lights on to follow him, but the man ran behind Kilroy's Bar & Grill.\nThe officers chased him on foot, and Rasche caught up with him and tackled him to the ground, Drake said.\nDrake said a friend of the man approached them and offered him a sweatshirt so he would have something to wear.\nThe man told officers his fraternity brothers had offered him $50 to run naked in the street and that he had been drinking since 10 a.m.\nHe listed his address as 631 E. Third St.
