Bearded naked man comes to Vero Beach

VERO BEACH — A 29-year-old man was arrested after a report he “was running through the neighborhood naked,” according to an affidavit.

The case of the bearded nude dude happened July 25 in the Vista Royale community in Vero Beach.

An Indian River County sheriff’s deputy went to the community after a disturbance.

“Upon arrival, I was informed that the defendant was running through the neighborhood naked,” an arrest affidavit states.

Deputies searched and found Tyler Thibodeau, 29, in front of building 81 in a state described as “completely naked.”

Vista Royale is a 55-plus community as opposed to a clothing optional community, and “completely naked” means completely without clothes.

Thibodeau told investigators he’d been drinking alcohol.

Thibodeau, of Windermere in Orange County, was arrested on a disorderly intoxication charge.
