The male model who gave scores of people an impromptu peep show when he ran around Times Square naked and screaming about Donald Trump, has been criminally charged, officials said Friday.
Krit McClean, 21, bared it all before taking a 15-foot plunge to the ground after a deranged 90-minute display watched by stunned cops, wide-eyed tourists and internet viewers via livestream.
He has been charged with public lewdness and disorderly conduct, police said.
NYPD Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce said it was unclear if McClean was on drugs when he stripped down.
"He was naked — he had no drugs on him, all right?” Boyce joked. “If he had drugs in him, that'll be determined. We won't know that until we take blood.”
McClean remained in Bellevue Hospital Friday, where he was treated for minor injuries and given a psychiatric exam, police said.
The ripped runway model’s no-holds-bared performance ended when McClean, typically swathed in Armani or Calvin Klein, stopped taunting the cops and jumped from the top of the TKTS booth — and missed two emergency air bags inflated on the street below.
McClean’s family refused to talk about what happened Friday.

"This is a private family matter — no comment,” a woman who came to the door of McClean’s family home on Roosevelt Island said Friday. The woman declined to identify herself.
