Dante Krauss Naked Motorcyclist Stopped, Arrested On I-75 Posted: 7:30 am EDT September 16, 2009Updated: 8:54 am EDT September 16, 2009 OCALA, Fla. -- Police pulled over and arrested a naked man riding a motorcycle on I-75 in central Florida early Tuesday morning. Marion County Sheriff’s Capt. Moshoji Rolls spotted J. Dante Krauss, 45, on a silver venture motorcyle on the interstate, wearing only his birthday suit. "I thought the driver of the motorcycle was not wearing clothing," Rolls said. The deputy decided to follow the naked biker. When Krauss ran a red light, Rolls pulled him over. Video from a dashboard camera showed Rolls questioning Krauss. When asked where he had been, Krauss stated, "I don’t know." Also, Krauss admitted he had been drinking and Rolls said there was a mild odor of alcohol emitting from him and his eyes were watery and bloodshot. "I'm just trying to figure out why you don’t have any clothes on," the deputy said. "Me too," Krauss replied. "The defendant could not explain why he was not wearing any clothing," said Judge Cochran, Marion County Public Information Officer. After field sobriety test was conducted, Krauss was placed under arrest and transported to the Marion County jail. The sheriff's office said the incident is the fifth DUI for Krauss, who was released from the Marion County Jail Tuesday afternoon.
