The man was seen taking off his clothes before embracing the tree
One witness said: ‘I was just walking in the park with one of my mates and we saw a man hugging a tree and thought it was interesting.
‘We walked closer and as we did, we saw his trousers down and this is pure gold.
That’s why I started recording and he just started taking off all his clothes and kissing the tree.
‘After I stopped recording, the police turned up and started following the man around then arrested him.’
A spokesperson for Wiltshire Police said: ‘A man in his 40s was arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure yesterday after officers were called to Queen Elizabeth Gardens shortly after 4.30pm following several reports from members of the public regarding a naked man.
‘He was taken to custody and has been released on bail while enquiries are ongoing.’
