ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- A marriage-minded man ran naked through his Michigan neighborhood, trying to show his hesitant girlfriend that taking risks is important.

However, he got more than he bargained for when he ended up being chased and shot at.

Police in Ann Arbor, Mich., said it all started when the couple was discussing marriage Wednesday morning and the woman said she wasn't sure she was ready.

Her boyfriend tried to make his point about taking risks by jumping out the window and running naked through the neighborhood. But after jumping out of the window and running across the street, he found trouble.

A couple strolled by and a man ordered the naked suitor out of his hiding place in the bushes and started chasing him, then shot at him.

The naked man fell to the ground and suffered minor injuries.

Police arrested the gunman on charges of aggravated assault and carrying a concealed weapon. But the naked man said he didn't want to press any charges. The naked man was not arrested.

A detective said, "Just when you thought you had heard everything."

Beware the naked man who offers you a ring. You don't know where that thing's been.

Did I see this scene in "The Naked Gun" or was it from "Indecent Proposal"?

I just hope he wasn't proposing to the chick who lost her shirt robbing the convenience store.

Around here the hunters would say, "I would have shot him but his antler would not have had a good Boone & Crocket score."

I thought he was running naked.

Wait, this is about the gunman. Never mind.
