He then jumped into the police patrol truck and drove off as the officer fell onto the ground.

The fully nude male was spotted at the intersection of Blue Diamond Road and Buffalo Drive, in Las Vegas.

Kyle, 38, said: “When I approached he veered to the lane I was in as he was following the nude man, which at the time I didn’t realise was naked.

”When I realised he and the officer were dealing with him mid-intersection, I put on my hazards and parked and pulled up my camera.

”I thought the officer was gonna handcuff him and I’d have a laugh.

”Needless to say my jaw was in my lap.”

The unnamed suspect was arrested have crashing the police truck into another vehicle shortly afterwards at 11 pm on Tuesday 31st October.
