ASSATEAGUE ISLAND, Md. - Two highly intoxicated men from Ocean City were arrested over the weekend for trying to ride the wild ponies and tackle sika deer, Maryland Natural Resources Police say.

Police say 33-year-old Thomas Chapman and 27-year-old Anthony Marchiano are charged with disorderly conduct. Chapman is also charged with attempting to feed, touch, tease, frighten or intentionally disturb wildlife in a state park.

Officers responded to the park about dawn on Saturday. Witnesses told police Chapman was naked and trying to ride the ponies and tackle the deer.

Police say he yelled profanities until officers arrested him.
