Duncan Kirk, of Bradenton, was charged with prowling and resisting arrest with violence, a sheriff's office news release said.
Residents of Wagon Wheel Circle in Sarasota saw Kirk walking naked through their yards about 7:30 p.m. Saturday, the sheriff's office said. When deputies arrived, they found Kirk sitting inside a home's screened-in patio, Sgt. Darin Bankert wrote in a news release.
Kirk attempted to run but deputies caught him and tried to handcuff him, Bankert said. He resisted arrest, even after deputies used a gel-based pepper spray, the sheriff's office said. Kirk was stunned with a Taser twice before deputies managed to place him in handcuffs, Bankert said.
Kirk was released Sunday from Manatee County Jail after posting $1,200 bail.
