I could not make this up... it's in our local paper today.

"A man dressed as a tree was arrested Monday afternoon in downtown Portland on a charge of obstructing a public way.



[The] Assistant Police said [the man], 30, of Portland, who was standing at High and Congress streets, was arrested after refusing orders to leave the busy intersection.

[He] was taken to the Cumberland County Jail in Portland, charged with the misdemeanor of obstructing a public way. His bail was set at $60 cash, according to a jail intake worker. He had not made bail as of early Monday evening.


[He] declined to be interviewed after being asked by the intake worker if he was interested in talking to the media.

Jail workers said the tree had to be removed from [him] so that a booking photo that clearly shows his face could be taken. The tree was being held at the jail."

(I removed the names).

Ah, Maine....

Supposedly a bit of "performance art". There's a sizable art college on that block.

certainly could be the root of the incident

A little over a year ago, I snapped this photo of a guy walking down the street in Santa Monica. Kind of matches the description.

and, given that he doesn't seem dangerous, his bark is worse than his bite
