Police Cite Woman Lying On Railroad Tracks In Her Underwear

Police also cited a man for trespassing after the pair were seen on railroad tracks between Puetz and Drexel twice in a two-hour span.

Two people paid a price for apparently using the railroad tracks in Oak Creek to get their kicks. 

A man and a woman were cited for trespassing June 1 after they were seen on the tracks between Drexel Avenue and Puetz Road twice in a two-hour span. 

According to an Oak Creek police report:

The conductor of an Amtrak train told police a man pulled a woman off the tracks just before a train came through about 5 p.m.

The pair were seen just south of Drexel Avenue, but officers couldn't find them at the time.

However, they were back just two hours later. About 7 p.m., the Canadian Pacific Railroad advised officers the woman was lying on the tracks in her underwear just north of the Puetz Road crossing. A train was scheduled to come through about 10 minutes later. 

This time, police found both of them and cited them for trespassing.
