What do you say when you see a naked man running along Interstate 20 in the wee hours of the morning? If you’re a Louisiana State Police trooper, you say, “You’re under arrest.”

A state trooper responding to a call of a two-vehicle accident near the 44 mile marker on the Interstate just before 1 a.m. Saturday reportedly spotted a man with no clothes on running westbound in the eastbound lane.

After taking 30-year-old Tyler James Vermont Smith of Fort Worth, Texas into custody, the trooper reportedly learned, after questioning, he was driving the at-fault vehicle in the accident and had left the scene.

Smith reportedly was taken to the Minden police department where he was read his rights relating to chemical testing, but refused to provide a breath sample.

Smith reportedly is charged with DWI first offense and hit-and-run. He is being held at Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center under a $1,500 bond.
