BERLIN (Reuters) - German police let a nearly naked shopper go home after she
told them she was getting groceries in the nude because she lost a spin the bottle
contest, a police spokesman in Cologne said Wednesday
"We're a tolerant city that is open to the world," said spokesman Burkard
Jahn. "She could have been arrested for disturbing the peace, but we decided
to let her go home with a verbal warning to dress appropriately next time."
The 35-year-old Cologne woman entered the 24-hour shop at 4 a.m. wearing nothing
but an unbuttoned jeans jacket, Jahn said. He said police decided to let her
go because few people and presumably no small children saw her at that time
of day.
