Seriously injured naked truck jumper ID'd by police

"Wilton police have identified the man who was found naked and seriously injured after he jumped from a moving truck in Wilton on Sunday.

Police said John Rodas, 34, of Gardiner, N.Y., suffered a significant head injury after jumping from a moving pickup truck in north Wilton around 9:15 a.m. Sunday, July 7.

The owner of the pickup truck, Wilson Puente, 57, of Ridgefield, told police he was driving south on Danbury Road by the Days Inn when he saw what looked like a dead deer on the side of the road.

Puente said he slowed down to look at the object, when he realized it was a naked man.

Police said the naked man then popped up from the ground and leapt into the bed of Puente’s truck."
