Case of the hockey streaker reaches court
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Associated Press
CALGARY, Alberta -- The case of a man who climbed naked over the glass at a Calgary Flames hockey game, then tumbled onto the ice and knocked himself out, has started its way through the courts.
Tim Hurlbut, 21, is charged with interfering with public property, a subsection of the mischief charge of the Criminal Code.
Hurlbut did not appear in court Tuesday but his lawyer asked that the case be put over until Jan. 31.
The streaker climbed over the glass wearing only red socks at the Oct. 17 NHL game between the Flames and the Boston Bruins. He slipped on the ice, knocked himself out and was carried off on a stretcher.
Play was stopped for about six minutes while medical staff attended to Hurlbut, who drew mostly laughter and pity when he fell flat on his back and was knocked unconscious. Having regained consciousness, he pumped his hands in the air.
