When two police officers attended a party on Sunday night over the report of a “disturbance,” it’s doubtful they expected to be mistaken for being strippers.
The officers arrived at marquee in Bendorf in Rheinland-Pfalz, south western Germany, and found themselves swamped by around 10 women who were celebrating a 50th birthday party.
The women assumed the officers were strippers, and started hugging the two men and taking pictures of them, The Local reported.
According to a statement filed by the officers, one of whom was in his 20s and one of whom was in his 50s, they made “several attempts” to tell the women they were real policemen, but were “totally unsuccessful” in getting their message across.
The party-goers then became amused “immeasurably” when the officers asked for the phone number of the woman whose birthday it was, despite this being standard police procedure.
The women finally realised their mistake when they spotted the police car in the distance. They duly turned down their music and the officers took the mistake in good humour, wishing the woman a happy birthday.
