TALLAHASSEE, Fla., July 2 (UPI) -- An unidentified man streaked through a Crawfordville, Fla., Walmart store wearing nothing but two bandanas, authorities say.

Wakulla County Sheriff David Harvey said about 1 a.m. Thursday a witness saw a man about 6-feet tall and about 210 pounds running naked except for bandanas wrapped around his face, WCTV, Tallahassee, reported Friday.

Investigating Sheriff's Deputy Vicki Mitchell said the alleged streaker entered the store about 12:40 a.m. wearing his clothes, changed out of them in a changing room and went on a two-minute streak before dashing out.

Witness Kenneth L. Malphurs of Crawfordville told another investigating sheriff Nick Gray an unidentified customer tried to knock the streaker down and hold him until authorities arrived, but the naked man was joined by a clothed friend outside the store and both ran away, WCTV said.

Two black bandanas were recovered in the parking lot of the store.

Investigators will be looking at surveillance tape.
