A man who relieved his stress by entering a forest to scream has been ordered to find a different way to relax because he is scaring neighbors, German police said.
After residents of the town of Aachen called police late Tuesday, “we found a 25-year-old man who said walking into the forest at night alone and screaming as loudly as he could was his way of dealing with the stress of everyday life,” police spokesman Paul Kemen said. It was the third time the man’s screams had prompted neighbors to call police.
He faces a fine of $75. “That stressed him out again, but officers told him not to go in the forest this time,” Kemen said.
