AKRON, Ohio -- An Akron cable personality and former City Council candidate was arrested Wednesday after an overnight disturbance, The Akron Beacon Journal, NewsChannel5’s partner, reported Thursday.
According to police, Anthony Hudson, 43, was wearing a jock strap over his pants and was sheathed in aluminum foil -- and proclaiming himself the King of Egypt -- when arrested.
Hudson, whose shows often include nudity, has acted so erratically at recent city council meetings that city officials have added tighter security at city hall, the paper reported.
Hudson was charged with felonious assault against a police officer, resisting arrest and criminal damaging.
Hudson was treated at Akron City Hospital and then taken to the Summit County Jail.
He is scheduled to appear in court Thursday.
