'He's naked and he's running in my damn house!" Desperate 911 call reveals moment naked home invader

'He's naked and he's running in my damn house!" Desperate 911 call reveals moment naked home invader rampaged terrified man's home

A Florida homeowner's desperate 911 call reveals the moment a naked home invader allegedly broke into his family's home before pleasuring himself on the floor and defecating throughout the house.

'He dropped off my roof and ran right into my house!' the terrified owner told police dispatch in North Fort Myers, as NBC2 reports. 'I don't know who the Hell he is - he's naked and he's running in my damn house!'

Gregory Matthew Bruni, 21, of Venice was Tasered into submission by police on Monday night after he allegedly stormed the home after first dropping onto the homeowner from its rooftop. The frightened victim told police he had gone outside to inspect loud noises on his roof around 6.50pm that night when the naked man jumped off it, partially landing on top of him.

Bruni allegedly next ran inside the home where the victim left his wife before pulling a 72-inch television off the wall, breaking it on the living room floor. Bruni then allegedly grabbed a wet/dry vacuum cleaner and emptied its liquid contents on the floor. Officers say he later sucked it up in his mouth.

However, I gotta say that the 'journalist' who composed this story could benefit from a refresher course in use of the comma:

Bruni allegedly next ran inside the home where the victim left his wife before pulling a 72-inch television off the wall, breaking it on the living room floor.


Why would the victim pull his own damn TV off the wall?

altho I have seen it twice in severly schizophrenic clients.
The rest of the reported behavior is more extreme, not typical of plain ole schizo pattern.

"Police are called, and they apprehend a flailing, babbling Bruni only after Tasering him. "Tase him, bro," a cop almost certainly says. Bruni is taken to a hospital, but doctors there say they can't identify what drug he is on. The answer is either all of them, or one you've never heard of. Or bath salts. Probably bath salts.

Police charge Bruni with two counts of criminal mischief, battery, occupied burglary and resisting arrest without violence. Everyone else in Florida goes to sleep that night, awaiting their turn.

Gregory Matthew Bruni, Naked Intruder, Pooped And Masturbated In Tony Lands' Florida Home: Cops

Gregory Matthew Bruni

In Florida, there are violent people, naked people, poopers and masturbators -- but rarely is one man the total package.

When Tony and LaDonna Land discovered naked carnival worker Gregory Matthew Bruni on their roof, the night had just begun. Bruni, 21, allegedly assaulted Tony Land, trashed the couple's North Fort Myers Home, and then defecated and masturbated inside the house, WTSP reports.

The Lands told police they were in their bedroom at around 7 p.m. Monday when they heard a noise that sounded like thunder, according to Fox 4 Now. Tony went outside and says he saw Bruni on top of the roof, completely naked. Bruni allegedly jumped down on top of Land, ABC 7 reported, then knocked him over by hitting him in the shoulder.

The Lands say Bruni ran into the house, pulled a big-screen TV off the wall, and spilled the contents of a vacuum onto the floor. Around this time, LaDonna grabbed a gun and began firing at the nude intruder. She missed, and the couple called 911.

“I would like to say a couple things... Greg is a GREAT guy he normal is NOT like this at ALL. Somthing happened that we are all trying to wrap our heads around.... All these news post are not making sure their stories are correct befor posting this either.... GREG IS NOT A CARNIVAL WORKER! He has nothing to do with any carnivals. What he did was not right at all and im not sayin it was ok for him to do what he did.... but you are getting the wrong outlook on him. Drugs of somewhere had to be involved.... but that is not even normal for greg so we dont know what is going on...I dont even believe he knows whats going on yet.”
