00:00Not every day you see a dude in his underwear throwing cinder blocks at cops, but it happened
00:15at a Fort Myers restaurant.
00:18He climbed to the roof and it was no good.
00:24As you can imagine, that causes a lot of trouble.
00:26I'm having some issues today, but we'll get through it here together.
00:29Okay.
00:29Hopefully we will.
00:30All right.
00:31Wondering what's happening.
00:32Like stroke possible?
00:34The story is coming up here from NBC2.
00:39Let's listen in to the details.
00:41Here we go.
00:42He wasn't in chores.
00:43Not sure.
00:45This is not something you see every day.
00:47Yep.
00:48That is a man on a restaurant roof.
00:50No shirt, no pants, just his tighty whities.
00:54And he caused quite the mess.
00:56Deputies say he ripped apart this sign.
00:58You can see some of the damage here.
01:00And he also threw cinder blocks at deputies and workers this morning.
01:05NBC2's Hope Salman is talking to witnesses at the La Mexicana restaurant on Ortiz Avenue, uncovering this bizarre tale.
01:12Walter Vega says he's been visiting La Mexicana almost every day for 30 years.
01:17He met Jesus Medina a few days ago.
01:20He's new to the Fort Myers area.
01:22I spoke to him before he did that.
01:24I was at 7-11, 11.30 p.m.
01:26He says Jesus didn't have a shirt on at that point and was angry about something that happened at work.
01:32I said, what are you doing, bro?
01:34He said, no, bro.
01:36The spirit tried to catch me.
01:40The spirit said he's going to get killed.
01:41I have no idea what's happening.
01:43I said, listen, my brother.
01:45I think you got a problem.
01:46L-C-S-O deputies say Jesus Medina ended up on the roof of La Mexicana in his underwear, yelling and destroying the sign and throwing things, including cinder blocks at deputies and anyone else standing nearby.
01:59They tried to talk him down, but when that didn't work, they split up.
02:03Some went from around the building and shot five beanbags at him, finally getting him to his knees.
02:08Lee County Sheriff's Office says Medina is now in jail.
02:11Tonight, construction workers were trying to fix the sign and more than $10,000 of damage to the property.
02:18In Fort Myers, Hope Salmon, NBC2.
02:21Can I see him again on the roof?
02:24The opening shot of him.
02:26There you go.
02:27He's climbed up on, they had like a weird, you know, like structure, which he climbed up.
02:37If he would have fallen off of it, it wouldn't have been probably very good.
02:41No.
02:41Not at all.
02:42James, don't ever do this.
02:44Get up, be upset at work and go up on the top.
02:47He's not going to make any promises.
02:49He really can't.
02:49James, what are you doing up there?
02:51James, get off the roof of the station.
02:53I refuse to.
02:54It's going to be okay.
02:56We'll get it figured out.
02:57James, I'm throwing cinder blocks at you now.
02:58I know the computer system.
02:59Look out.
03:00Listen.
03:01Cinder block.
03:01The computer sucked, but it's not worth it.
03:04Cinder block.
03:05I keep working late because the computer keeps messing up.
03:08I keep going to the digital department asking for help.
03:11Yes.
03:11Nobody has the same problems as me.
03:13It's only.
03:13I know it works fine on their end.
03:15Yeah.
03:15I'm done.
03:16Yeah.
03:16Cinder block.
03:17No.
03:18Oh, man.
03:19Not another cinder block.
03:20Oh, he got the IT guy.
03:22I'm running out of stuff to throw.
03:26Oh, my God.
03:27Oh, my God.
03:28James has just destroyed his whole office.
03:29He just tore the place apart.
03:32It's a weird day.
03:32Then the next day, we come in and everything's fine.
03:34I ruined my box with T-Pain energy shots.
03:36I will say, though, if all of a sudden I got an email that said, man is on the roof at
03:42the station, I'd be like, what is James doing?
03:45You would just know.
03:47I would just know.
03:48He's like, Chuck will be like, what happened to James?
03:50If you could pick one person in this building that would go on the roof after some sort
03:54of issue.
03:55Yeah, it's James.
03:55In his underwear.
03:55In his underwear.
03:56Sorry, James.
03:56You're number one.
03:57I get it.
03:58You're number one.
03:59Talk to overly straight guy Ken.
04:00I asked him for the keys to the roof.
04:02I had to come in here one day because there was an issue with the podcast.
04:05Nobody could figure out what the problem was.
04:07Okay.
04:08Can I have the keys to the roof?
04:09I'll be right back.
04:11You want to give them to me?
04:12No.
04:13He knew.
04:13It's smart.
04:13It's very smart.
04:14He knows.
04:14No one should ever give you the keys to the roof.
04:16Nope.
04:16We got to triple lock that thing.
04:18I'll find a way.
04:19Because you calm down and then you realize, okay, it wasn't worth a lot of much.
04:23But you can definitely go underwear cinder block at any moment.
04:26I know.
04:27I know.
04:27I've been talking to my doctor about it.
04:28We're trying to find a solution.
04:30I'm trying to start a new medication next week.
04:32Yeah, man.
04:32We're trying to find a solution.
04:34Very nice.
04:34We're trying to find a solution.
04:36That's what you're saying.
04:38That's good.
04:39We're trying to find a solution.
04:41I can't be maximum irritated every single day of my life.
04:44Yeah.
04:45I'm very thrilled by that.
04:48Oh, my God.
04:48I hope you find a solution.
04:50I'm trying to find a solution.
04:51I do, too.
04:51It's unfortunate because I found out that the medication I have to go on is going to affect
04:54my boners.
04:54I'm like, great.
04:55Oh, yeah.
04:56Oh, no.
04:56Perfect.
04:57I got a thing.
04:57I can stand to be a little less horny, but great.
05:00This is what I have to do.
05:00I've got to choose boners over temper.
05:02Oh, boners or rage.
05:03Yeah.
05:03That's a tough call.
05:04There's always help, my friend.
05:07Get a little help with that.
05:08Yeah.
05:09Oh, yeah.
05:09Can I just take a pill from my boner?
05:10Perfect.
05:11Oh, my God.
05:11Yeah.
05:11So then you got to take a pill to calm your rage and then you got to take a pill.
05:15It's pills on top of pills.
05:16Yep.
05:17Getting older.
05:18That's all they get you.
05:19That's how it happens.
05:20I just can't believe I'll be a guy on the bottom with a megaphone just trying to talk
05:25James.
05:26Don't do it, honey.
05:28I can't take it anymore.
05:30James, think of us.
05:32I love you, but I can't take it anymore.
05:34Don't do it, honey.
05:35I had to come up here in my man thong and make a statement.
05:38Cody, can you say some stuff?
05:39It's the only way.
05:40I'm feeling a lot of pressure.
05:43Can his other real life honey actually say something?
05:46All right.
05:46I'm coming down.
05:46I'll be home in a minute.
05:47There you go.
05:48See, that's all we need.
05:49Just need to find Cody.
05:50Yeah.
