BERLIN (Reuters) - German police have arrested a man suspected of holding three teenagers at gun point in the street and demanding money before forcing two of them to strip naked and jump up and down on car hoods, police said Tuesday.

The victims, two young men and a young woman, were confronted by the man as they walked home in a Berlin suburb in the early hours of Monday morning. He drew a gun and demanded money but they had no cash on them.

"The man then told the two men to strip naked and asked the girl to remove her shoes," a police spokeswoman said.

He forced the men to set fire to the clothes and shoes on the pavement then made them climb onto parked cars and jump up and down until they shattered the windshields, she added.

Stripping naked, burning my clothes and jumping up and down on cars.

No one ever had to point a gun at me either!
