A German man has been banned from a bathroom shop after relieving himself at a display toilet.

39-year-old Heinz Kessel used the lavatory in the Bochum store before realising that it was a dummy and was not connected to the drains.

He was spotted by shop assistant Simone Fiedler, who said she first noticed a "terrible smell" in the shop. "I called the manager and we went around the shop looking for it and then behind a screen where we had some toilets on display there was this red-faced man trying to flush a display toilet," she said.

"[Kessel] thought it was hooked up to the mains and couldn't understand why it wasn't working. He apologised and told us what had happened but in the end we had to shut the shop until it was all cleaned up because the smell was so bad customers would have been driven away anyway."

Staff handed Kessel a cleaning bill and a lifetime ban from the store.
