A man was arrested in Los Angeles and charged with “assault with a deadly weapon” after allegedly shooting naked people with a BB gun Saturday around 11:00 a.m., according to ABC 7.

The man was reportedly dressed in black and riding a scooter when he allegedly shot two people who were at a “naked bike riding event.”

“Two men suffered lacerations and were treated at the scene,” the Los Angeles Daily News reported.

The bike ride was reportedly part of World Naked Bike Ride Day and was intended to “celebrate cycling and the human body and demonstrate the vulnerability of cyclists on the road … and … protest … car culture.”

There was no word on what type of BB gun was allegedly used in the incident.
