Court Fines Couple For Having Sex In Train

A 39-year-old man and a 37-year-old woman have been fined $8,400 for having sex in the middle of the day on a Berlin train, a court spokesman said on Thursday.

The incident took place on a Sunday in April 2018.

Police at the time said the man and woman were performing oral sex in full view of passengers, including children, on a train heading into the city centre.

Witnesses reportedly intervened, leading to a physical altercation that eventually prompted one passenger to pull the emergency brake.

The man and woman were arrested at the scene.
