LA CROSSE — A La Crosse man is in trouble with the law after he was arrested for running around a parking lot naked and telling officers he was on "tons and tons of acid."

The La Crosse Tribune reports that police received a complaint early June 29 of a man running around naked and yelling incoherently.

Police found the 29-year-old in a parking lot on the city's north side. Asked why he was running around naked, the man said, "Oh, that's what all those drugs are for" and "what's wrong with being a heroin addict?"

Police asked him what he'd taken, and he responded "tons and tons and tons and tons and tons of acid."

Officers arrested him for lewd and lascivious behavior and disorderly conduct.
