It had to happen sooner or later, inevitable as the change in the weather. And last night it did, though on a modest scale.

Police were astonished by the sight and by the time a police van arrived the streaker was gone. Police were reluctant to give a precise description of the naked one and claimed they had scant information since the streaking act took them by surprise.
