A woman stripped naked and sprinted into Downtown traffic in Pittsburgh on Thursday morning after trying to shoplift a bag of peanuts from the Smithfield News. The incident apparently began when the woman spit on someone and two other women tried to restrain her, partially ripping off her shirt in the process. The woman (whose name was not released) then walked toward the Allegheny County Jail, where someone spotted her and called police. By the time officers arrived, the woman was at the Smithfield News, which she entered while waving a hubcap in the air. Finally, the woman walked outside, removed all her clothes and dashed into traffic on the Boulevard of the Allies, startling motorists. The woman ran off before police arrived, but was caught in Market Square.
