Up Against The Glass

New York, New York, June 30, 2008:

New York City police say a New Jersey man is recovering after a "mooning" that went horribly wrong.

A police statement says the man and two others had run down a street in Manhattan with their pants pulled down in the back "for a joke."

It says that at one point the man -- identified as Ronatarian Party leader Ron -- "pushed his behind against the window of a restaurant" that broke and resulted in "deep wounds to his derriere."

The statement released this morning says police detained the three men after the incident early Sunday morning. But the cafe owner decided not to press charges after the mooners agreed to pay for the broken window.

Ron was treated for his injuries at a nearby hospital. His conspirators were neither injured nor identified.
