 A South African performance artist , Steve Cohen was arrested in France and charged with sexual exhibitionism.

Cohen told the Sunday Times he was jailed for ten hours, had to give a DNA Sample and had to go a psychiatric evaluation.

His next court appearance will be on the 16th of December

He reportedly said the message of his work was "about being pulled in many directions simultaneously.

"Frank's [Cohen's name for the rooster] a feisty cock and wonderfully capable of deciding the choreography," he was quoted as saying.
