Math Professor John McCarthy reportedly stripped off his clothes and walked through the ground floor halls of the Engineering Building Monday at Michigan State University.
Several witnesses told The State News he was screaming and swearing at students as he walked.
MSU police responded to a call at 1:07 p.m. Monday afternoon in which they took the professor into protective custody and transported him to a local hospital.
No crime was committed, and no one was injured, MSU police Sgt. Florene McGlothian-Taylor said.
