    EAST HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES (KABC) — New, bizarre video shows a naked man running through the scene of a serious crash in East Hollywood.

Los Angeles police say the streaking man seen in the video was driving one of the two vehicles involved in the crash.

It happened on Thursday afternoon at Normandie Avenue and Santa Monica Boulevard in East Hollywood. Multiple people were injured, according to LAPD.

The man fled the scene after the crash, baring all and running down the street to the shock of bystanders. It was all caught on video.

“He’s the one that caused the accident. He was going through a red light. He ran, ran out of the vehicle naked. He was on drugs. It looked like he was homeless,” said witness Ramondo Taylor.

Police said one person was taken to the hospital in critical condition.

The naked man was eventually arrested, and officers believe he was under the influence. He could possibly be charged with felony hit-and-run and DUI.
