A couple have been arrested having sex at a public park which is just a stone’s throw away from the Buckingham Palace amid the COVID-19 lockdown.
As states by the Sun, the couple were seen having sex in London’s sun-soaked St James’s Park, just a few metres away from Birdcage Walk, as surprised eyewitness walked past on Saturday afternoon.
“The Queen would have been outraged — they were at it like rabbits in the shadow of Buckingham Palace.’
The cyclist continued: ‘Families and joggers went past as they went at it but they didn’t give a damn who saw them.’
The cyclist added: ‘I was surprised nothing was done during lockdown because they were clearly very close to the pavement.’
On confirming the deed, a Metropolitan Police spokesperson said,
‘At around 12.50hrs on Saturday 11 April mounted branch officers on routine patrol in central London encountered a man and a woman who appeared to be having a picnic on Birdcage Walk, SW1, in central London.
‘Officers engaged with the pair and spoke to them to remind them of the current government guidance, including around social distancing, and advised them to return home. The officers did not observe any sexual activity taking place.
‘The individuals involved explained that they were homeless and the officers then gave them advice to signpost them to a third party agency that they could contact about seeking shelter.’
