Police Blotter: Shadow-Boxing Man Seeks Relief of Varying Types

Three calls came in to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department on Monday regarding a man in his fifties who put on a public display that was worthy of a heavyweight fighting championship.

The first caller saw the man on the corner of Antonio Parkway and Oso Parkway, shadow-boxing while removing his shirt. Over an hour later, the second caller saw him urinating in a bush. He then walked down Antonio Parkway—with his pants down.

The third caller reported seeing him nearly two hours later, sleeping on a grassy area. The woman was concerned about the man’s health and hoped someone would assist him.

It is unknown whether he had, in fact, been knocked out by his shadow.

The first call came in around 10:30 a.m. on Monday, the second call  around noon, and the third call at about 1:30 p.m. All of the calls originated from Antonio Parkway and Oso Parkway.
