An English football fan was arrested by Spanish police in the Puerta de Sol square in the centre of Madrid early on Saturday morning. The man was naked and masturbating in public on top of a fence surrounding one of the fountains. Footage of the incident was posted on Twitter, in which other fans can be seen and heard cheering him on.

When police officers went to the bar where the man in question had been seen, they found him in a notably drunken state. He became violent and hit several police officers, several of whom required medical attention.
The man will be charged with various offences for his behaviour.
