PRINEVILLE, OR -- A Prineville man faces a long list of charges after a bizarre altercation with two sisters, Sunday night. According to police, 20-year-old Joseph Bailey was naked when he stood in the middle of SE Fairview Street, near NE First, forcing the 23-year-old woman to stop her car, just after 11 p.m. Her 15-year-old sister was able to escape and call 911 after the man climbed into the car and began assaulting the driver. Investigators believe he was trying to take the vehicle.
When police arrived, Bailey ran. But when officers caught up with him, the nude man charged them. A taser was deployed, but Bailey was unfazed and climbed into the drivers seat of a patrol car. He continued to fight with officers while being taken into custody. He's accused of Robbery III, Assault IV, Strangulation, Resisting Arrest and Unauthorized Entry to a Motor Vehicle, among other charges.
The 23-year-old victim was taken by ambulance to the hospital, where she was treated and later released. The 15-year-old was not hurt.
