Police officers abandon roadblock after naked man dances in front of them

A naked man caused a stir in Beitbridge on Tuesday and even forced police to abandon a roadblock when he danced unclothed in front of them. The man said to be a Malawian national, marched in his birthday suit from Dulivhadzimo bus terminus to the border post with scores of youths following him.

He walked past police manning a roadblock near the border post and they looked aside as if nothing was happening. For a while he walked towards the border post before making a U-turn to heard straight for the police officers. Police immediately deserted their post as the man took over with a swelling crowd around him.
