SARASOTA COUNTY, Fla. — A bizarre scene unfolded Saturday night at a Planet Fitness on South Tamiami Trail after 25-year-old Henrry Antunez-Avarado was arrested for running naked through the gym, crawling into the ceiling, and attempting to start a fire in the bathroom.
Staff reported that Antunez-Avarado was asked to leave at closing time but began acting erratically. Surveillance footage showed him sprinting through the facility unclothed, laying naked on a hydro massage bed, and eventually hiding—still naked—inside a tanning bed. He also damaged the ceiling by crawling through it and knocking down tiles.
Deputies arrested him at the scene. He now faces charges of indecent exposure, arson, criminal mischief, and providing false identification to law enforcement. Authorities also noted that Antunez-Avarado has a prior 2023 conviction for attempted burglary, trespassing, and loitering.
