This is the moment a naked German tourist is arrested after riding around on a one-wheel scooter while masturbating in public - after losing a bet.

The man, 56, told officers that he had been gambling with friends in Pattaya, Thailand, last night when he lost a game.

The holidaymaker then shocked locals as he scooted around the streets without clothes.

One stunned resident, 32-year-old Korn Sawasmongkol, said he saw the man pleasuring himself on his single-wheel electric machine.

The apartment block security guard called police who arrived and pounced on the naked man in the Nongprue district of the city.

He was photographed in nothing but a pair of red trainers and silver army-style helmet helmet carrying his groceries in his free hand while the other held his manhood.

Korn said: ''The man was 'helping himself' as he went round on his scooter. He was doing this and showing his penis to tourists.

"I was at the gate of the condominium block and saw him do this. I called police and they chased him.''

Officers received a call at 10pm and arrived shortly after near the Pratumnak Hill apartments.

Lieutenant Colonel Satsak Pinthong from Pattaya Police Deaprtment said: ''We have taken control of pictures of him masturbating without any clothes on and a report will be made to prosecution him for obscenity. We explained that this is inappropriate behaviour in Thailand.''

The tourist faces a fine of 5,000 baht (about 115 pounds).

Lieutenant Colonel Satsak Pinthong said that had also asked the man to make an apology.
