Australian Barmaid Fined for Crushing Beer Cans Bare-Breasted

An Australian barmaid at the Premier Hotel in Pinjarra has been fined by police for crushing beer cans with her bare breasts. Also, the barmaid’s off-duty colleague has been fined because she hung spoons on the barmaid’s nipples, and the hotel manager was fined because he didn’t stop them.

Police said that the barmaid, who is 31-years-old, has pleaded guilty to exposing her breasts to patrons at the hotel, which results in a fine of A$1000 ($900). Police said in a statement that the barmaid “is alleged to have also crushed beer cans between her breasts during one of the offenses,” which is a breach of the hotel licensing laws.

The friend who hung spoons on the barmaid’s nipples was fined A$500, and the hotel manager was fined the same as the barmaid, A$1000. David Parkinson, who is the local police superintendent, said, “It sends a clear message to all licensees in Peel that we will not tolerate this type of behavior in our licensed premises.”
