A street magician was arrested on harassment charges after he allegedly used his tricks as an excuse to fondle women’s breasts in public.


The magician posted videos of his exploits online as he is seen approaching young women and offering to show them a trick which involved making a coin disappear from his palm – which then magically reappeared in their breast

He is then accused of fondling the women’s breasts as he attempts to show them the coin, with many reportedly too shocked to react.

The suspect, whose name was not reported, was caught after a man spotted the inappropriate behaviour and announced a 100,000 RMB (£11,574) reward for his capture.

It did not take long for locals in Chengdu, capital of south-western China’s Sichuan Province, to find and nab the magician. May of the women appear too shocked to respond and do not bat his hand away.

It is unclear whether his trick actually worked.
In the end the man was brought to local police with no one claiming the reward money.
