Two women were traveling on a train to Munich on Saturday when they spotted a man through a gap in the seat who was in the process of masturbating.
An unpleasant incident occurred on Saturday afternoon on a regional train from Rosenheim to Munich. Passengers on the train included two plainclothes policewomen who noticed a man in one of the rows of seats. He had begun to openly display his erect penis and masturbate in front of the two women. He was watching the women through the gap between the seat backs.
The two officers, who were out on private business, immediately alerted the federal police. At around 3:30 p.m., the officers were able to arrest the 29-year-old suspect when the train stopped at Munich’s Ostbahnhof. The man was taken to the Munich East federal police station for further investigation.
A breathalyzer test showed that the perpetrator had a blood alcohol level of 1.5 per mille. The man, who has no fixed address, was initially released after consultation with the public prosecutor’s office. The Munich Federal Police Inspectorate has begun investigations and is also evaluating the camera recordings from the train to further clarify the incident.
