Cristian Diazmore was “completely nude” when police officers found him at 7610 Harding Ave, a police officer wrote, according to an arrest report.
Diazmore had broken into an apartment and “ransacked” it when a witness who worked in housekeeping found him, according to the report.
Diazmore took off running, and a security guard at Temple Menorah, at 620 75th St., reported he was trying to break into the school, according to the report.
Diazmore “was barefoot” and “wearing only red shorts” when police officers saw him near the temple, in the back of 7440 Carlyle Ave., according to the report.
Diazmore struck the detective in the face “with his left elbow,” jumped a fence, and took a fighting stance, but a police officer punched him and he fell before he was arrested, according to the report.
