Woman Runs Naked Through Sleep Inn

(Memphis) A woman is charged with a crime after an unusual wake-up call at a Memphis hotel.

Brandy Cruel is accused of taking off all her clothes and running around the third floor of the Sleep Inn on Old Austin Peay just after midnight Sunday.

The manager says he night clerk heard all the commotion so she went upstairs to get Cruel under control. Cruel then cursed her out and told the clerk if she didn’t calm down she was going to cut her.

Manager Harry Sangh says that’s when the clerk called police.

“Maybe (she was) high on drugs or something?” wondered Sangh.

Cruel says that wasn’t the problem.

She claims she was upset with the hotel’s service so she took it all off and lashed out.

The Sleep Inn says that’s not true.

According to the police affidavit officers also tried to calm Cruel down by asking her to step outside and answer some question.

But she became combative and yanked her arm away while screaming at the top of her lungs.

The scene caused quite a disturbance and woke up guests hotel guests.

“I wish I was there,” said Daniel Grey.

Grey is traveling, and he didn’t wake up during the skimpy sprint, but will have an interesting story to tell when he gets home to Colorado.

“I’m not surprised. I mean it’s a strange world we live in these days,” said Grey.

Cruel is out on $100 bond and will be back before a judge, fully dressed, Tuesday.
