A naked Jersey City man wielding a meat cleaver while pursuing another man was arrested Friday morning after he streaked by a police officer, reports said.

Dirk A Baezner, 45, of Kensington Avenue in Jersey City, was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes and unlawful possession of a weapon, police reports said.

A police officer on patrol on Bergen Avenue at 10:54 a.m. saw Baezner, wearing only glasses, run by while chasing another man with a shiny silver-colored meat cleaver, reports said.

The officer caught up with the men at Fairview Avenue, where he saw Baezner on top of the victim trying to cut him with the cleaver, reports said.

The victim was struggling to hold Baezner's arms to prevent the weapon from cutting him, reports said.

The officer tackled and disarmed Baezner who was taken to the Jersey City Medical Center for treatment for minor scrapes and a mental evaluation, reports said.

The 60-year-old victim who received numerous cuts and bruises to his hand and body was also taken to the hospital, reports said.

Police reports did not indicate what, if anything, prompted the attack,
