A 'confused' man was discovered smeared in his own faeces and wearing nothing except for a tablecloth inside a cupboard at an Indian restaurant.

Police said the man, thought to be in his 20s, was found at an Indian eaterie in Church Street, Malvern, Worcestershire, just after midday on August 2.

It's thought that he had spent the previous night in the cupboard.

According to officers, the man was 'in a confused state' and had verbally abused staff, reports the Malvern gazette.

He was arrested on suspicion of using threatening verbal behaviour and criminal damage.

The reasons behind the bizarre incident are still unknown.

Officers slapped the man with a Community Resolution Order, forcing him to apologise to staff and clean up his mess.

Both Indian restaurants in Church Street - Anupam and Cafe Zam Zam – denied any knowledge of the incident.
