PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a man claiming to be an illegal immigrant ran naked down a Port St. Lucie street so that he would be sent back to Mexico.

Police responded to a home Saturday night where the say 28-year-old Roberto Carlos was arguing with his boyfriend. Officers told Carlos, who appeared to be intoxicated, that he should go home for the evening, but Carlos told them he wanted to go to jail because he was an illegal immigrant and wanted to go back to Mexico. He then said he planned to punch an officer to get arrested but decided not to after police told him it wouldn't be in his best interest to do that.

That's when Carlos took off his clothes and ran down the street.

He was charged with indecent exposure and being held for immigration officials.
