‘Amorous couple’ blamed for flooding at major Melbourne stations
An "amorous couple in a stairwell" has been blamed for sparking a major flood in Melbourne's city loop last week
Two stations packed with commuters were evacuated after the Olivia Rodrigo concert on Thursday, causing significant delays for weary concertgoers.
CCTV from the incident later revealed the incident was caused by a couple in a stairwell who may have accidentally triggered the sprinkler mechanism.

"It would appear that an amorous couple in a stairwell dislodged a sprinkler," Minister for Transport Infrastructure of Victoria Danny Pearson told reporters on Wednesday.
"There was extensive flooding. Metro will be investigating these matters further and police are investigating.
"Perhaps a stairwell may not be an appropriate place to find yourself in after dinner."
It was initially believed the flooding at Melbourne Central and Flagstaff stations was caused by an act of vandalism.

Police released CCTV and images of two people they believed could assist with their investigation.
It's alleged the duo gained access to a stairwell about 10.40pm and damaged a water pipe and sprinkler.
Victoria Police said the offenders had fled the scene after the extensive flooding.
"The delays affected big crowds trying to get home from the Olivia Rodrigo concert at Rod Laver Arena," police said at the time.
Investigations into the incident continue.

‘Am I justified?’: Neighbour installs high-tech CCTV on homeowner’s yard
An Australian homeowner's alarm has been raised after their neighbour installed a security camera that points over the dividing fence and directly into their backyard.
The homeowner posted the situation to Reddit, claiming the Ring Spotlight camera turned on when they walked around their alfresco.
Ring describes that particular model as its "most advanced battery-powered spotlight camera" which has motion sensors and captures both audio and video.

It also has a bird-eye view which can "see precisely where someone's been and how they got there with an aerial view of your home".
The homeowner asked: "Am I justified in asking them to disable the spotlight and adjust the camera's angle?"
While many Reddit users suggested the homeowner try to obscure the camera's view, let's see what the federal government says.
The Privacy Act does not cover security cameras operated by individuals acting in a private capacity, according to the office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
While some state and territory laws may apply, the office advises coming to an agreement with your neighbour yourself.
"If your neighbour has a security camera pointed at your house and you're worried about your privacy, first try to talk to your neighbour," the Australian Information Commissioner's office said.

"If this doesn't fix the problem, you could ask your local community justice or neighbourhood mediation centre for help."
In the instance that mediation has failed, you can then contact your local council to find out if the practice contravenes any local laws.
"Some councils require planning permission for security cameras," the Australian Information Commissioner's office said.
"If your property is part of a strata title, check the by-laws to see if they cover installing or using security cameras."
For more information on whether any laws apply in your state and territory, contact your local Attorney-General's Department.
