Man gets naked to defecate in woods, allegedly chases hiker without his clothes on
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas (KTVT) A 53-year-old man was arrested after admitting to law enforcement authorities he took off his clothes to defecate in the woods and a hiker allegedly stumbled up on him.
The woman told police that the man, Scott Alexander Stephens chased her. Stephens has denied her claim. Regardless, he was charged with disorderly conduct and booked into the Montgomery County Jail.
The incident happened on May 14 on Lone Star Hiking Trail #3 in the North West corner of Montgomery County.
The alleged victim told a patrol sergeant she saw Stephens naked but carrying an unknown article of clothing, emerge from the wooded area in her direction. That’s when she allegedly ran in the opposite direction and “…kept running and didn’t look back.”
