A pair of young lovers so annoyed their neighbors with a noisy sex session that police had to go and ask them to lower the volume, police said on Tuesday.

Officers in the western city of Essen interrupted the couple shortly after midnight after neighbors, listening to the sounds through an open window, called to complain.

“Gradually more and more neighbors gathered in front of the house to investigate the noise,” said a police spokesman.

The embarrassed couple were asked to close the window and continue at a lower volume, he said.
