Stripper arrested by German police over toy gun

Police in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, wrongly detained a stripper after receiving information about a man carrying what they later discovered to be a toy gun.

The incident happened on Friday night, when police reported seeing a “suspicious man” on a street in the Nordend district of the city.

He was believed to be carrying an assault rifle and was dressed in a US police outfit and helmet.

In actuality, the man had been employed by a nearby pub’s stag party.

Prior to learning the gun was a toy, police had the man in handcuffs and on the ground. He was then released.
