Naked Man Accused of Pestering 23-Year-Old Mission Viejo Woman
Police arrested a man who was only wearing a red silk shirt when he confronted a young woman outside her home.

A 23-year-old Mission Viejo woman had an unwelcome surprise Sunday morning around 3:30 on the 26000 block of Avenida Domingo.
Coming home from work, the woman was approached outside her home by a man in his 40s wearing only a red silk top, according to Orange County Sheriff's Lt. Sandra Kirsch.
The victim drove to her boyfriend's home, and they returned to her home. A short search brought them to Robert K. Cook, 41, who, at that point, was completely naked, Kirsch said.
