A man caused panic at an airport in the US state of Florida, after he walked around naked until the police intervened.
Martin Evtimov, 36, entered a lounge and breached a checkpoint at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport on Monday. The authorities quickly paralyzed him and then arrested him.
The man was booked into jail on multiple charges including disorderly conduct, resisting authority and indecent exposure.
The 36-year-old was given a $3,500 bond in court today and is currently in police custody.
According to local authorities, Evtimov parked his car outside the terminal at noon before entering the airport naked.
Published videos show him entering the checkpoint and trying to open a door and access a restricted room.

The TSA officer who ordered the man not to open the door did not attempt to restrain him.
Officers arriving at the scene arrested him on charges of battery on a police officer, resisting arrest with violence, disorderly conduct, drunkenness and indecent exposure.
He was transported to Broward Health Medical Center for medical evaluation before being booked into Broward Central Jail.
The judge ordered a mental health assessment for the 36-year-old, and ordered him to stay away from alcohol and the airport.
