A motorcyclist caught the eye of a police officer in Ontario Sunday, not just because he was speeding, but because he wasn't wearing pants or underwear.

The 40-year-old Hamilton man was clad only in a T-shirt, the Hamilton Advocate reported.

"He had no pants, no underwear," Acting Staff Sgt. David Hennick said, and no helmet.

Hennick said the nearly naked biker fled police, lost control of his cycle, got back up and tried to continue on. He eventually tried to get away on foot but was arrested after a brief struggle.

The man is facing charges including dangerous driving and flight from police. The newspaper said police suspect alcohol was a factor.
