A STREAKER turned heads on Grimsby's Peaks Parkway.
Mystery surrounds the identity of the man who is understood to be in his 50s and attempted to hide his face as he streaked in front of passing motorists on the busy A16.
Luckily Keith Littlewood, 47, of Waldorf Road, Cleethorpes had just dropped his daughter off in town before heading back southbound on Peakes Parkway at around 1.30pm on Sunday.
He ran across the bridge over Peaks Parkway between Weelsby Road and Low Farm roundabout.
The streaker came down the path from the fields to the left of the southbound carriageway.
He touched the railings on the side of the road and ran back to the fields behind the YMCA.
Mr Littlewood said: "I saw an overweight man in his 50s with dark hair run down the path from the fields, touch the railings at the roadside and run back. The gentleman was naked.
"It must have been done for a bet or a dare, but I'd have thought that the gentleman should've known better."
He added: "I wasn't concerned, just amused at the audacity. A bet or a dare is the only reason that I can think of why a middle-aged man would that.
"As he ran back up the pavement, towards the fields, he had his hand up covering the side of his face so that he couldn't be recognised."
