Naked Man Arrested At Library With Stolen Cheese (ACTUAL TITLE - CINCINNATI)

A man faces charges after an unusual incident at a local library. 52-year-old Darrell Bess was taken into custody yesterday, naked, armed with knives and several pounds of stolen cheese.

Bess was ordered by a judge to stay away from the Main branch of the Cincinnati-Hamilton County Public Library in downtown Cincinnati because of prior thefts.

But police say Bess ignored that warning. He was found naked, bathing in the men's bathroom at the library on Wednesday. Police searched his bag and found two knives, two library CD's and 4 pounds of parmesan cheese which he allegedly stole from a local store.

Court documents shows Bess is homeless and has a history of bizarre thefts. In May, he was arrested after he allegedly tried to shoplift 10 cans of herring and 16 cans of sardines at a local store. Then on June 13th, he was accused of trying to take several bags of candy from a Graeter's location.

Bess now faces new charges of carrying a concealed weapon, public indecency, criminal trespass, theft and receiving stolen property.

Still, it’s kind of silly that they charged him for concealed weapons because he had knives in his bag. If you’re homeless, you’ve pretty much got to carry your home around with you, and what home doesn’t have a few knives in it? I mean how else do you expect the guy to cut his stolen cheese?

I think almost all homeless in the US are batcrap crazy.

There are so many govt programs and handouts available now that only those who really want to be homeless are.

The story said it was Parmesan cheese. He was probably snorting it.

You know, when the paper has to point out that something like this is unusual, it's got to be a crazy world. I remember the crazy homeless guy around Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco who used to steal a baguette and chase women tourists around while he held it out like a dildo. But then I don't remember the Examiner mentioning that was unusual.

There’s no mention of a moose in this story.

I guess he'll have to take a bus out to one of the other branch locations.

In the report, the police asked him who cut the cheese.

“allegedly tried to shoplift 10 cans of herring and 16 cans of sardines at a local store”

Herring and sardines? Yecchhh! As though being naked were not enough, this choice of food is proof positive he’s a pervert. Any normal low-life would be stealing spam and beanie-wienies.
Lock him up.
