MACON, Ga. - A naked Georgia man stole an ambulance and went for a joyride, the Bibb County Sheriff’s Office said.
Residents spotted the ambulance driving aggressively without its headlights turned on near Mercer University Drive. Deputies said the ambulance also was seen doing burnouts in a parking lot.
Deputies said they arrived at the scene, but the ambulance did not stay put; it led deputies on a short chase.
