A 57-year-old woman noticed a man secretly filming under the skirt of a 28-year-old female passenger on a regional train from Augsburg to Munich. The witness reacted quickly: she recorded the incident herself with her mobile phone, according to the federal police.

The 57-year-old approached the young woman and informed her about the recordings. When the 28-year-old confronted the suspected perpetrator, the man apologized, deleted the videos on his phone, and showed her his US driver’s license. The young woman later filed a complaint with the federal police in Munich.

The attentive witness provided the 28-year-old with her video recordings of the incident. According to the federal police, the recordings are to be used as “important evidence” in the investigation on suspicion of violating privacy by taking intimate images.

The incident occurred on a regional train traveling from Augsburg to Munich. The federal police are now investigating the 57-year-old suspect. The exact circumstances of the act are the subject of ongoing investigations.
