A man in Germany grabbed the crotch of a plainclothes policewoman while she was jogging – and was immediately arrested by her.
The 30-year-old officer made an emergency call, explained the arrest to the man of the same age and handed him over to a patrol, the police said. An investigating judge ordered the man to be remanded in custody on Tuesday.
No attempt to escape
The man got in the way of the jogging policewoman on Monday afternoon in Fürth (Bavaria) with his bike – and suddenly touched her. When it became clear that he had come into contact with a police officer, the man no longer attempted to escape, said a police spokesman.
The 30-year-old is being investigated on suspicion of sexual harassment. The officials are also checking whether he could be responsible for two similar cases recently in Nuremberg. (sda/dpa)
