NAKED HOUSTON VANDAL BETTER SUITED FOR SAN FRANCISCO

Running around naked jumping up on cars and smashing automobile windshields is so un-Houstonian. It would appear this kook would feel right at home in San Fransicko where running around naked would hardly raise any eyebrows.

HOUSTON -- An armed, naked vandal went on a rampage in the Galleria area Sunday afternoon, trashing a convenience store and smashing several car windows before he was arrested.

He starts with a punch, a swipe and then a throw. In a blink of an eye, the suspect ransacks the Shell gas station in the Galleria area.

Police tell us 18-year-old Ugo Iyegbu began his destructive rampage around noon Sunday after briefly arguing with the clerk over having to pay before pumping gas. After hitting the lottery machine, Iyegbu smashes the coffee dispenser. The clerk could do nothing but stand back and watch.

A second camera shows the suspect knocking over the snack stand. Total destruction time is 2 minutes.

Outside, a third camera shows the suspect pulling out what police say is a shotgun and smashing the car of an innocent bystander.

But the suspect didn't stop there. Police say he drove his car across the street to this luxury car rental business where the story goes from strange to just plain bizarre.

Police say for some unknown reason, Iyegbu stripped off all his clothes, and in the nude, began destroying luxury cars -- six of them, including this white Lamborghini.

Prosecutors tell us Iyegbu's apparent meltdown caused damages in the range of $100,000-$200,000 by striking the cars with the butt of a shotgun.

The destructive rampage came to an end after officers were able to talk the suspect down off one of those cars.

Iyegbu is now charged with felony criminal mischief. He remains behind bars on a $10,000 bond.
