Police in hot pursuit of a speeding cyclist in Poland were left shocked when they finally caught up with him riding completely naked and wearing his pants on his head.

Traffic police moved to arrest the rider after he set off a speed camera in Bialy Bor, northern Poland.

The cyclist, Piotr Chmielewski - then fully clothed - had been flagged for exceeding the 30mph (48km/h) speed limit in place.

But by the time traffic police had caught up with the cyclist they found him completely naked apart from his underwear, which he was wearing on his head.

Local police spokesman Waldemar Lada said: 'He was fined twice - once for speeding and again for indecent exposure.'

Mr Chmielewski, who was fined a total of £200, disputed the allegations of nudity made against him, arguing, unsuccessfully as it would later turn out, that he was in fact wearing a thong.
