A naked man entered the Capitol rotunda Monday afternoon, shouting that he was Jesus Christ.

The suspect, Brian Ireland, 39, was quickly ushered out of the public eye by Wisconsin State Capitol Police before being arrested and taken to the Dane County Jail.

Stephanie Marquis, Communications Director of the Wisconsin Department of Administration said in an email that he was charged with disorderly conduct, and lewd and lascivious behavior.

His motives are unknown at this time, Marquis said.

Ireland should appear in court on October 1, according to Ismael Ozanne, Dane County District Attorney.
