An accused bank robber who defecated in front of a stunned judge, staff and spectators was ordered today to undergo a psychological examination to see if he is mentally competent to stand trial.

Charles Fowler Jr., 30, forced a 15-minute courtroom evacuation yesterday after suddenly, without warning,pulling down his jail-issued trousers and squatting in front of the bench.

"What's he doing?" San Diego Superior Court Judge Kerry Wells inquired.

"He's, uh, relieving himself, your honor," a bailiff responded.
