Arizona man arrested for allegedly getting naked at sports bar twice

PHOENIX – A northern Arizona man was arrested the morning of Christmas Eve for allegedly getting naked at a sports bar on two occasions, authorities said.

Prescott police responded to reports that an unclothed man was in a truck in the Gurley Street Sports Pub parking lot around 11:45 a.m. Tuesday, a day after a man reportedly entered the bar without any clothes on.

The man, 69-year-old Leonard V. Hall, was driving away when police arrived, but they stopped him a short distance away. He was naked when he was stopped, police said.

Hall, a Prescott resident, matched the description of a man who reportedly entered the bar unclothed Monday morning and stood in front of a female bartender, police said.

He fled that time after the victim called to her boss for help.

Bar employees told police the man had come inside fully clothed a few minutes earlier and talked to the bartender, who said she’d never seen him before.

Surveillance footage showed the suspect undressing in the parking lot before re-entering the bar, police said.

Hall, whom police said admitted his involvement, was booked into Yavapai County Jail on indecent exposure and trespassing charges.
