Police in central Sweden are on the hunt for a gang of tattooed women who sexually molested a 50-year-old man as he was riding by on his bicycle.

Suddenly, someone grabbed hold of the rack on the back of the man’s bike, causing him to fall to the ground.
“The girls ran up to him and pulled the bicycle down so he fell,” Örebro police spokesperson Annika Haaster told the newspaper.
As the man was lying defenceless on the ground, the women proceeded to pull off his trousers and underwear and molest him sexually before fleeing the scene.
According to police, the 50-year-old was not otherwise beaten or physically assaulted by the gang of five girls.
The victim told police that the girl who actually pulled down the bicycle was about 175 centimetres (5 feet, 7 inches) tall and had tattoos on her forearms.
Authorities are hoping that tips from the public can help them apprehend the suspects responsible for the bizarre attack.
“It’s downright unusual for five girls [to do something like this]. Perhaps there are others who’ve had the same thing happen to them,” Haaster told Aftonbladet.

Why is this funny? If the genders were reversed I'm sure you wouldn't find it in the least entertaining.
I am assuming all of you that have commented above are male, which makes it even more bizare that you think it's ok for a member of your own sex to be attacked like this.
"Douse me in choclate and throw me to the lesbians!"
They should have knicked his wallet, at least then he would have something to complain about.
Next we know the animals start complaining for some attempted rape!! lol
Probably mobilised every cop car in the country in the hope of catching a piece of the action!
I never thought this would happen to me, but...
"I guarantee that if this were a 50 year-old woman attacked and sexually assaulted in a similar way then no one would be laughing. No one would be describing her as "lucky".
All depends how desperate she was!...
Not saying this is ok at all, but it is not rape, and there is NO physical damage, and from the sounds of it, very very little if any mental damage.
oh...
175 cm = 5' 9"
I bet over half the men out there would have the same reaction as the first commenters (myself included). Whether they would admit that to a woman, or publicly on here, is a different story.
S
I love this country!!
This is the funniest thing I have read in awhile.
I think it would be so funny if someone from here did go biking there and encountered the gang, only to find out that they were "armed" with cucumbers or perhaps strap-ons
Maybe not!

Totally correct. Nobody would be laughing if a 50 yr woman was attacked in this way. And your point is?
But it was a fifty year old male that was molested by women. So it's funny...sort of.
But, just as last time a topic like this came up, it's being laughed off...
But in reality Miss Kitten and Sofia are both so painfully right. Sexual molestation in any form, regardless of age or gender is not really a laughing matter and someone's privacy being violated in this way - in a public place - really isn't funny.
Imagine being pushed off your bike and then exposed and fondled by strangers, probably while being laughed at and made fun of... If that's your wet dream, I'm not really sure about your sanity.
So laugh at the idea, sure, but don't make fun of the poor bastard this happened to! A no is a no (I guess some of you were waiting for that one)!
It was little more than a schoolgirl prank and he is probably sitting at home reliving his wildest fantasy....and probably couldnt resist sharing it with the rest of the world otherwise he wouldnt even have gone to the cops.
The reactions show more than anything some womens lack of sense of humour.
At least the girls enjoyed the fun.
(I also find Benny Hill funny )
Is it guy humour? Of course! Is guy humour silly/dumb! Absolutely or it would not be funny!
But what is actually funny? Whatever we laugh at!
If they had done any physical harm it might be a different story...but 5 girls-half this guys age- jumped him and fondled him...the only real crime here is if they did it and didnt get him off so they left him with blue balls. Otherwise thats a hell of alot better than sitting at home watching a porn and watching it happen to someone else!!!
Cosmo? The magazine for office sluts? No, I haven't read that since I was one.
Doesn't sound as though much harm was done but no-one has the right to go around assaulting another person, even if the recipient were weird enough to enjoy it (in which unlikely event he can pay for it - freebies like this will put hard working girls out of business). Sure guys will joke about it but for authorities to not act sets a bad precedent.
Of course if you really think you might like this kind of thing then you know where to go and what to do - let us know how you get on !
What's the betting this man is a little bit 'special'. Sounds like pretty nasty bullying to me but you can bet the police wouldn't be involved if this happened in a school. (To a schoolboy I mean).
Think it is time to leave the local to the playground.
Oh Great, I just gave Sweden a new toy to invent.
I'm a feminist and I have no tattoes.
He's married.
He's gay.
In both cases, he probably wouldn't much like the idea of being molested by a group of tattooed biker chicks.
So I think assuming 'everyone' is thinking this kinda just makes you seem very nieve for reading 1 post and picking up on 1 point...
All of you missed the only important point and conboy completely missed everything kitten wrote.
I didn't think it was feminists or lesbians actually...just a group of kids who should have been brought up better and need some discipline.
But maybe that is just because I am a bit innocent and miss the deeper points to things...
I never did find out if that was updated!
(as you can see, my lack of interest and lack of being able to remember boring details is why I am an IT nerd and not a rich lawyer...)
""I have found in my experience it is best to "go with the flow" and hope like hell they don't get out their dildo's, then you are in deep ."
Why not start a seperate thread and tell us about your "experience", Holey,I'm sure it would create even more interest than this one.
The mind boggles!
To the women who just can't believe the cavalier attitude that most men have towards this incident, I think there really is a biological reason for this; simply put, it's the difference between the sexes. Men don't get pregnant, and constantly produce sperm, so we need frequent sexual release- just a fact of nature. Women have to deal with severe biological consequences i.e getting pregnant and giving birth, so they will understandably be much more cautious and protective of their sexuality.
Just got a funny message when trying to post:
You have posted a message with more emotions than this board allows.
Is this board english or what?
The reality of this story is the women were probably not very desirable looking, smelling, etc. Once settling in to that reality it really kills the fantasy and makes the idea sound not nearly as awesome as first expected. Think of your ugliest, most annoying, fattest co-worker and then think of her and her 4 friends raping you, yuck!
