Cash-Strapped Drinker Leaves Clothes In Pub

A drinker who could not pay his bar bill left his clothes at the pub as collateral and walked off naked in search of money.

Other residents looked on amazed as the man walked through the town of Prerov in the Czech Republic dressed in just a pair of ankle-length black socks.

Security camera footage filmed him as he walked casually across a street, chatting on a mobile phone.

The man told police he was just popping across town to another pub to get some cash.

Eventually he was allowed to complete his mission, and he returned to the pub to pay his bill and collect his clothes.

City police said they have handed the case over to state police for further investigation.
