Police responded to reports of a nearly naked man wandering on Ventura Boulevard just before 6 a.m. on August 21. Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department inmate records identify Montero Lamar Hill as the person held in the Valley Jail in Van Nuys. A law enforcement source said Hill charged at officers and punched one in the face twice, resulting in an arrest for battery on a police officer. Officers transported Hill to a local hospital for a possible overdose while investigators did not know whether he was on substances or in mental distress. TMZ published footage of Hill in underwear and cowboy boots, and some observers suspect a publicity stunt.
The Los Angeles Police Department responded to reports of a nearly naked man wandering around on Ventura Boulevard just before 6 a.m. on August 21. Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department inmate records confirm that Hill is the person in question and is being held in the Valley Jail in Van Nuys, CNN reports. A law enforcement source close to the investigation told NBC News that Hill charged at officers and punched one in the face two times before he was ultimately arrested for battery on a police officer.
TMZ Hip Hop published footage of Hill wearing white underwear and a pair of cowboy boots while walking down the street at 4 a.m. The video appeared to be taken by the driver of a car. "Hey, don't be late to the party tonight," Hill told the cameraperson. When asked for a location, he replied, "You know where it's at" and walked off while humming. At other points in the 102-second video, Hill asked the cameraperson to stop filming, placed an orange traffic cone on his head, and posed in the middle of the street.
