Overview

  • LAPD officers responded around 4 a.m. on Ventura Boulevard in Studio City after reports of a semi-naked man behaving erratically captured on widely shared video.
  • Footage published by TMZ shows the 26-year-old wearing only underwear and cowboy boots and at one point placing an orange traffic cone on his head.
  • Police detained him and, suspecting a drug overdose, had paramedics transport him to a hospital for evaluation before releasing him to custody.
  • After several hours of medical observation he was booked at the Valley jail in Van Nuys on suspicion of obstructing an officer, a misdemeanor, following allegations he charged at police.
  • Authorities say formal charging decisions will follow medical evaluation, and his representatives have not responded to requests for comment.
