Drunk Naked Man Runs Over 24 Mailboxes, Gives Cops The Finger, Hits 2 Cop Cars - Tasered

It started out innocently enough at a couple of local bars where Marshall Mammon met his older brother for a few drinks Tuesday night.

Before it ended, the 21-year-old was tearing down a Cape Coral side street — naked — in his white Ford Taurus.

He ping-ponged from side to side, ripped through 24 mailboxes, flipped off police officers and hit two patrol cars before police caught him.

Then they had to stun him with a Taser to get him under control.

"We were all speculating on just what was going on with him," resident Kurt Harclerode said as he worked Wednesday to set up a new mailbox. "You have to wonder what's wrong with someone to make them act that way."

Steven Mammon said he left the bar around 8 p.m., and his brother waved off a ride, saying he would make it home to his girlfriend and 4-month-old daughter on his own.

"Our family is alcoholics," Steven Mammon said. "And we can't drink without getting in trouble."

They should have let him run down a few people before they tried to stop him, I hate cops.
Plus, he had a good excuse, "Our family is alcoholics," Steven Mammon said. "And we can't drink without getting in trouble."

4. He should put his "talents" to more constructive use. Like professional pinball.
