An 18-year-old student who stripped naked and ran through the streets of Byron Bay to win a free kebab has been labelled a 'goose' in court. Jack Mascitelli, from Victoria, took up the unsavoury dare in broad daylight at 8.45am during schoolies week in the popular NSW beach town. The prank backfired when he accidentally ran 'screaming and yelling' past a group of police officers, the Sydney Morning Herald reports. The officers then found him hiding in a nearby kebab shop. Jack Mascitelli, from Victoria, ran through Byron Bay naked during schoolies week for a free kebab . Mr Mascitelli, who is studying law and commerce at university, was fined $500 for offensive behaviour. Appearing in Sydney's Downing Centre Local Court on Monday to argue against the fine, Deputy Chief Magistrate Chris O'Brien told Mr Mascitelli: 'What a goose. That's what you are.' 'This is 8.45 in the morning and you are running through the streets with no clothes on. I don't know why you would want a kebab at that time of day,' he added. Mr O'Brien pointed out how children could have seen Mr Mascitelli expose himself and called his actions 'embarrassing'. 'If people had been there with their children, or in my case my grandchildren, to see you exposing yourself ... they're wandering off to have a swim and there you are in all your glory,' Mr O'Brien said. Despite the dressing down inside the courtroom, Mr O'Brien did not record a conviction and said Mr Mascitelli was apologetic. Daily Mail Australia has contacted Mr Mascitelli for comment.
