Police have seized a robot in Germany after it allegedly touched a 16-year-old girl’s buttocks and ‘made thrusting motions against her’.

The ‘assault’ was reportedly livestreamed outside a fast food restaurant in Cologne on Sunday.

The 1.2m tall red and gold automaton is believed to have approached the teenager from behind when she was standing with a group of friends.
