Cops: Naked Man Attacks Elderly Couple That Tried To Help Him

BRADYS BEND, Pa. (AP) — A Pennsylvania man was jailed and given psychiatric treatment after police say he showed up naked at his elderly neighbors' home and beat them after they tried to help him.

Online court records don't list an attorney for 56-year-old Paul Chilcott, of Eldred, who faces a preliminary hearing July 22 on aggravated assault, open lewdness and other charges.

He remained jailed Tuesday for allegedly punching the man in the face then knocking the man's wife to the floor. Police say both are 80 years old.

Police say that happened after Chilcott arrived Saturday morning naked and muttering about wanting to kill his wife. The couple covered Chilcott with a blanket and called 911 before he attacked.

Police say the elderly man stopped Chilcott by hitting him in the head with a vase.
