“She came in clothed and at some stage took off her clothes. She seemed to be determined, as if she wanted to cause a provocation,” a witness tells the TV station.
“People started to scream and cry and when she started moving toward the men’s section she was stopped by force,” the witness says.
There were no immediate details on the woman’s identity or her motivation.
