Stutsman County Sheriff Sgt. Jason Falk said Stutsman County Communications dispatched a sheriff's deputy to the 4400 block of N.D. Highway 30 around 3 a.m. Tuesday after receiving calls of a man running naked on the state highway.

Falk said the man, who is 39 or 40 years old, had allegedly been driving a Chevrolet pickup truck reported stolen out of Leola, S.D. Falk said after the deputy found the man, he was transported to Jamestown Regional Medical Center and later taken to the North Dakota State Hospital for observation.

Falk said the man is being investigated for possession of stolen property and no formal charges were filed against him as of Wednesday afternoon.
