Pomohaci appeared in court without legal representation

A 36-year-old man who was under the influence of cocaine ran naked around a Swindon petrol station.

The incident took place in the early hours of January 31 this year and saw mobile mechanic Vlad Pomohaci shout and run naked around the Texaco forecourt on Kingshill Road, before dragging wooden palettes across the site and throwing them at his Land Rover Discovery.

At one point Pomohaci attempted to cover himself with a cloth or piece of clothing, the Swindon Advertiser reports, but it kept slipping and he continued to expose himself.

Pomohaci had previously admitted to driving while disqualified, driving without insurance, driving with a proportion of a specified controlled drug above the specified limit, and outraging public decency.

On August 12 he appeared without a lawyer at Swindon Magistrates Court for sentencing, only to be warned by the District Judge of the seriousness of his crimes, told he faces a possibly custodial sentence, and advised to urgently seek legal representation.

The case was adjourned until August 26.
