Naked man hijacks Olympics torch relay

The man was arrested after disrupting the relay by streaking past spectators

The Olympic Torch relay was interrupted in the posh town of Henley-on-Thames — by a streaker. The streaker had ‘Free Tibet’ written on his back and managed only a short distance before being tackled by officers in Henley-on-Thames. He was covered in a blanket by police and led away.

A Thames Valley Police spokeswoman confirmed that a 27-year-old man from Henley has been arrested on suspicion of outraging public decency. Hundreds of onlookers watched the blonde-haired man disrupt proceedings in the Oxfordshire town as the torch made its way through on the 53rd day of the relay. A Henley resident who was lining the procession route said the streaker came out of the crowd.
