A man police say showed up naked and tried to burglarize a home in East Cobb last week also has been charged with hitting an officer called to the scene.
A warrant for Jonathan Brown, of a Wendwood Drive address in East Cobb, said that he tried to break into a home on Missy Drive, located off Meadow Drive near Pope High School, on the afternoon of June 15.
The warrant also states that Brown “did appear in a public place in a state of complete nudity” and that “his intent was to behave in a ‘silly’ manner.”
He tried to enter through a back door of the home but failed, according to the warrant.
The warrant further states that officers were called to the scene and tried to arrest Brown, who “became actively combative and physically resisted apprehension.”
In doing so, the warrant states, Brown hit one of the officers in the head with his fist.
There’s no booking information available from the Cobb Sheriff’s Office. According to the warrant, Brown is facing felony charges of attempted burglary and obstruction and misdemeanor charges of simple battery and public indecency.
