A suspected burglar found naked inside a Miami Beach apartment attacked a detective before he was taken into custody, police said.

Cristian Diazmore, 21, was arrested Monday on charges including battery of a police officer, resisting an officer with violence, and burglary of an unoccupied dwelling, Miami-Dade jail records showed.

According to an arrest report, the incident happened Monday at the building at 7610 Harding Avenue, where detectives were following up on a burglary case that happened Sunday.

While there, the detectives were alerted by housekeeping that a man had been looking through the window of the unit minutes before the detectives arrived.

A detective went into the unit, which appeared to have been ransacked, and saw Diazmore at the end of the hallway completely nude, before Diazmore fled into a room and closed the door then fled through a backdoor, the report said.

A short time later the detectives were flagged down by a security officer for the nearby Temple Menorah, who said a man who was barefoot and wearing only shorts was trying to get into their school.

One of the detectives found Diazmore in the alley of the school but he fled again, the report said.

The detectives chased him and when one caught up to him, Diazmore elbowed him in the face, causing an abrasion and swelling and causing the detective to fall to the ground and injure his elbow, the report said.

Diazmore continued to flee and jumped a fence but was cornered by the detectives and took a fighting stance, the report said.

The injured detective then punched him in the face, knocking him to the ground, before he was taken into custody, the report said.

Diazmore was booked into jail and expected to appear in bond court on Tuesday.
