Officials in Ohio have detained a man for allegedly masturbating on a sidewalk while behaving like a gorilla, the Smoking Gun reports.
 
It happed at Giant Eagle Plaza in the Warren, Ohio.
 
Timothy Cook, 32, was charged with disorderly conduct while intoxicated after police responded to reports of “two white males running around the lot taking off their clothes, one of the males growling and punching the cement,” according to a police report obtained by the Smoking Gun.
 
Authorities wrote in the report, “One of the males entered the License Bureau and was waving his arms around. He then excited the business and began masturbating on the sidewalk,” adding, “The License Bureau then locked the doors to the business due to safety concerns.”
 
That’s when officers found Cook in the parking lot, where he was “sweating profusely acting like a ‘gorilla’ - was squatting on all fours, punching the blacktop and jumping up and down screaming noncoherently.”
 
Cook was detained and an ambulance was called. Emergency services reportedly administered Narcan to the suspect for an apparent overdose.
 
Taken to Trumbell Memorial Hospital, Cook was revealed to have an outstanding drug possession warrant.
Later, 24-year-old Osmond LeMasters, the other suspect in the incident, was detained. 
 
LeMasters, who was released from the scene, was charged with disorderly conduct while intoxicated.
