SF nude candidate busted at Haight fair

San Francisco, CA:

At the Haight Street Fair, 10 June 2007, nude
mayoral candidate George Davis was arrested by SF
police, while he was gathering voters' signatures
for his nominating petition.

The arrest occured in early afternoon (after 12
noon but before 3pm), at the intersection of Haight
and Ashbury.

At first, Davis was bare from ankles upward.
When officers handcuffed his hands behind his back,
they also wrapped a large cloth around his waist, thus
covering his genitals.

Police led him a few feet north on Ashbury,
and made him sit down on a curb between two parked
cars, where he would be less visible to the public.

During a very long wait, an angry NIMBY approached
Davis. Then the NIMBY confronted one of Davis's
fellow nudists, asserting that street nudes are
"egotists" who damage the Haight fair.

Were the police waiting for a vehicle
in which to transport their prisoner? If so, none
came. Eventually they marched him --
still handcuffed, but now wearing pants --
further north on Ashbury (toward the Panhandle),
and out of the festival area.

Presumably Davis stayed in city police custody,
and/or in the county sheriff's custody,
until around 8:30 Sunday night.
Then he was reportedly "cited " (given a citation,
commonly called a "tricket")
and released.
