He was drunk, naked and using a machete to ‘destroy’ mailboxes, police say
Two cousins were jailed after a weekend party led to using a machete to destroy area mailboxes while naked, police said.
Yudier Duenas-Sosa was charged with aggravated assault and criminal mischief while his cousin, Irene Orozco, was charged with resisting a law enforcement officer after Cape Coral police were called to the 4300 block of SW First Avenue Saturday.
A call came in reporting a naked man walking in the street using a machete to “hit and destroy several mailboxes,” according to police. When officers arrived, they found a naked, machete-wielding Sosa, 35, and took him into custody without incident.
