Police in the Russian city of Yekaterinburg have arrested a 20-year-old man for riding semi-naked behind a moving car in a rubber ring.

The man was dragged along the highway wearing only his underwear, a scarf and shoes.

The unnamed offender is facing charges of hooliganism, while the driver could be fined for “incorrectly transporting passengers,” Russia's RIA Novosti reported.
