This is the best summary I could come up with:
A man is in custody and en route to a hospital for mental health treatment after he jumped naked into the massive aquarium at The Bass Pro Shop Leeds Thursday night.
The 42-year-old man was reported to be acting erratically and drove a vehicle into a pole in the store parking lot.
After the crash, he got out of his vehicle, took off his clothes, ran into the Bass Pro Shop and jumped into the aquarium.
Video taken by bystanders showed the man do a cannonball into the aquarium and later stand under the waterfall.
He continued to shout something to officers before he climbed over the side of the aquarium and dropped to the concrete floor below, appearing to have been knocked out by the fall.
Jail records show George Owens, of Sterrett, is charged with public lewdness, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, assault on a police officer, two counts of first-degree criminal mischief and two counts of reckless endangerment.
The original article contains 262 words, the summary contains 160 words. Saved 39%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
