A male stripper caused alarm in Frankfurt’s red-light district after he was spotted with what appeared to be an assault rifle and bullet-proof vest emblazoned with “FBI.”
“A significant number” of police were called to the area Saturday night, NBC News reports.
Turns out, the 30-year-old Hungarian man was table-dancing and wearing a costume.
The gun was a plastic replica “but had deceiving similarities to a G36 assault rifle,” police said.
The stripper was allowed to perform after a delay.
“Prosecutors in Frankfurt now have to evaluate whether the possession of the rifle replica violates German gun laws,” Frankfurt police spokesman André Sturmeit told NBC News.
