- Minutes after spotting a man beating a woman off Harbor Boulevard,
witnesses called police to say he came after them, too — "only in his
undershorts," an Okaloosa County sheriff's deputy said.
The 19-year-old man was charged with misdemeanor battery.
A
woman and her friends said they caught the man hitting another woman
and intervened. When they did, he charged at the entire group,
according to his arrest report.
At some point, he "removed his
khaki cargo shorts leaving him only in his undershorts" and began
swinging them around, a deputy wrote.
He hit one of the women in her right upper thigh, leaving it red, according to the report.
