Man Drinks Fabuloso Cleaner, Steals Ambulance With ‘I’m Dying’ Patient Screaming in Back, Sparks Insane Naked Chase Into Muddy Cornfield
Here’s a longer, more detailed version of the story in English, keeping the original content and wild details intact but expanding it with additional facts from recent reports:Some hangovers are rough, but then there’s the absolutely unhinged episode involving 37-year-old Benjamin L. Feltz from Stevens Point, Wisconsin. On February 17, 2026, in Wisconsin Rapids, this man elevated “crazy” to a whole new stratosphere. Police received calls around 5:30 p.m. about a naked man doing push-ups near the train tracks while screaming profanities and insulting people around him. That alone was bizarre enough, but things quickly escalated into one of the most surreal incidents in recent memory.According to the criminal complaint, Feltz later admitted to investigators that he had consumed about half a bottle of Fabuloso — the popular multi-purpose floor cleaner — sometime that afternoon. He claimed he had no clear reason for drinking it, insisted he wasn’t trying to harm himself, and even suggested there might be marijuana in his system. A breathalyzer test came back at 0.00 for alcohol, but his behavior screamed severe impairment or something far worse.
The chaos didn’t stop at public nudity and push-ups. EMS crews from the Wisconsin Rapids Fire Department were responding to a call and had a 50-year-old female patient (suffering from kidney disease) loaded in the back of their ambulance. While the two paramedics were busy outside, Feltz — still completely naked — somehow slipped into the driver’s seat. The medics heard the door slam, turned around, saw him behind the wheel, and yelled for him to stop, but he took off at high speed with lights and sirens blaring, leaving the terrified patient strapped to the gurney in the rear.What followed was a wild 18-mile (about 29 km) police chase that reached speeds over 90 mph (around 145 km/h). The pursuit started in Wisconsin Rapids and headed west on State Highway 73 toward Pittsville, with Wood County sheriff’s deputies joining in. Officers tried deploying tire deflation devices (stop sticks) to halt the vehicle, but they failed. The chase lasted roughly 40 minutes before the ambulance finally got stuck in a muddy cornfield.Feltz was pulled from the vehicle — still naked — and taken into custody without further incident. The patient in the back was unharmed and later safely transferred, though she reportedly pleaded “I’m dying” during the terrifying ride.
Benjamin Feltz now faces 10 criminal charges, including four felonies: first-degree recklessly endangering safety, operating a motor vehicle without the owner’s consent, attempting to flee or elude an officer, and his third offense of operating while intoxicated (among others like lewd and lascivious behavior, disorderly conduct, and more). A judge set his cash bond at $100,000 and ordered a mental competency evaluation/hearing due to the extreme and inexplicable nature of his actions.Incredibly, after everything — the cleaner ingestion, the nudity, the stolen ambulance, the high-speed pursuit, and endangering a vulnerable patient — Feltz told authorities he “didn’t want to hurt anyone.”This case has left locals and online commentators stunned, with many calling it one of the strangest stories to come out of Wisconsin in years.
