A laundromat customer aired far more than his dirty laundry in public when he stripped naked in front of disbelieving patrons.
The man was initially seen smoking and drinking at the Open All Hours laundromat in Christchurch on Friday at 2pm before throwing other customers into a real spin.
A woman, who was working in a nearby pharmacy, said the man started to strip in front of about 15 shocked customers.
"They were all watching him – not saying anything. He took his top off parading around, and slowly took more clothes off. It was like a strip show. He thought he was hot, that's for sure."
The woman said some customers moved away "because I think they were starting to get a bit scared".
According to police, after removing his underwear, the man put his clothes into a washing machine and donned a pair of shorts. Officers later charged a 45-year-old unemployed man with offensive behaviour.
