An 18-year-old has broken into a German prison and scaled a 4-meter (13-foot) wall to get to his ex’s window. Prison officials managed to intercept the teenager with the help of the fire service, who brought a ladder to bring the man down when he refused to climb back down. It is unclear whether or not his attempt succeeded in winning back the heart of his girlfriend (who is also 18). The teenager is now being investigated for trespassing and unauthorized contact with prisoners. The things people do for love, right?
