DAYTONA BEACH (CBSMiami/AP) — Times Square’s famous Naked Cowboy singer was while working a gig at Bike Week in Daytona Beach.
Court records show Robert Burck, 51, who is widely known for wearing only white briefs, boots and a cowboy hat while playing a brightly colored guitar, was arrested Saturday while performing at the annual event.
Burck, a regular at Bike Week, was charged with panhandling.
Daytona Beach police said Burck was arrested after officers spotted people tucking dollar bills into his guitar after taking photographs.
“The defendant began taking photographs with multiple bystanders, while bystanders placed United States currency inside the guitar’s center sound hole in the area of Main St/S Fern Ln, which was approximately 10 feet away from the front door of a commercially zoned property at 810 Main St.,” arresting officers wrote in a report. “The defendant’s actions violate Daytona Beach City Ordinance 66-1 (Panhandling).”
He was released from jail Sunday morning following a first appearance hearing, Volusia County court records show.
Video on Burck’s Facebook page, The Naked Cowboy, showed him performing and taking pictures with fans Saturday morning. A video posted to YouTube shows a police officer attempting to get a handcuffed Burck, whose guitar was still hanging from a strap around his neck, into a patrol car.
