SANTA ANA, Calif. — California authorities got a shock of their own when they discovered that a drunken driving suspect they had just stunned with a Taser was naked.

Santa Ana police said the man was pulled over Wednesday night after his van hit a car.

Police Commander Stephen Colon said the driver was fumbling in the front seat and refused to put his hands up.

Police used a stun gun on his head and neck and then saw he was nude.

Colon said the man, whose name was not released, was being tested for drugs or alcohol.
