A couple has left people stunned after they climbed a major bridge in the city just to have s*x before they were rescued by police.
Magenta Montante, 24, and Michael Anderson, 34, got into trouble after they were caught by motorists driving below the pedestrian bridge as they got amorous.
The couple stopped traffic as police tried to get to them down the bridge. It was alleged that the couple climbed the bridge to have sexual intercourse. However, police arrived just before they could be intimate.
Ms Montante told 3news: "We were spending time with each other."
When asked if they were having sex, she simply replied: "No, but we were going to."
The station said authorities were worried the couple may have jumped off the bridge and didn't want to take any chances.
DPS Trooper Steve Kadalak said: "Apparently, when they spotted us, they realised they should not have been up there. Their intentions were star gazing, that's what they told me."
Both received citations for criminal trespassing and obstructing a highway.
