Naked Guy Whitehall Straddles Prince George Statue Shuts Streets Near Parliament

It's less than a week since BBC News Magazine posted The shock of the male nude and already a naked man has perched on a statue in London. He mounted the statue of Prince George, Duke of Cambridge, in Whitehall and removed his clothes. Crowds gathered. The police set up a cordon. An eyewitness claims "two fire engines, eight squad cars and four mounted police" turned up, as well as an ambulance. Sounds par for the course! We take our naked men seriously in Britain. After 3 chilly hours the man climbed down and was detained under the Mental Health Act. Texan student Lydia Kassa took this snap, which I've enhanced.
