'Forbidden-To-Enter' Letter Story

 I'll just tell this story 'as-is'....came up early in the past week on N-TV.

Up in Gelsenkirchen (NW Germany), they have a train station.  It's not a big huge place like Hamburg or Frankfurt, but sizeable.

A drunk couple came up on one of the platforms.  Guy is in mid-40s....gal was late thirties.

Train pulls up near this platform, and the 'driver' notices that the two are engaging in physical sex (not just kissing/smooching).  It's suggested that the folks at this end of the train also got a 'dose/view' of the action. 

Train driver calls the police.  I guess he felt it was a duty in this case.

Cops arrive.  They approach the two....instructing them to 'halt'.  No one says the wording or the way they approached the two.  It might have been blunt words....it might have been just a request.

The couple got a bit disturbed....started to act aggressive toward the cops.  Part of this alcohol influencing their actions.  

Cops end up arresting them, and there's some charges for public nuisance.  There's probably a second charge of railway safety operating rules (I would imagine).

So here's the odd thing....the two were given a 'forbidden-to-enter' note from the station folks.  They aren't supposed to come near the property.

Usually, you only get notes like this for sports arenas or stores.  Yeah, for a train station, it's a bit unusual.  Out of a hundred places where you might engage in public sex and not get some 'forbidden-to-enter' note.....this railway station would be one of the last places I'd want trouble.
