featured in News & Reviews Author Chris Richard, Site Editor Updated

A man has been arrested for strolling through the streets of Chamonix - naked. We are pretty sure it can't have been the heat as we have only just had fresh snow in Chamonix, perhaps he wanted to get caught on Google Street View.

The man was said to have been wondering freely around the the area of Le Praz for the past two days and it wasn't until the police recieved several calls from locals yesterday that they laid their hands on the mysterious flasher.

The police arrived on the scene at 2.30 pm and when they made an attempt tried to arrest the man he promplty tried to make a swift getaway, but the police were quick off the ball and tackled him.

The local man in his forties was placed under arrest and will be judged in court in August.
