4 Australians face charges after auto 'body' wash
It was just a routine car wash. Except there was no car - and no clothing.

It was just a routine car wash. Except there was no car - and no clothing.
Four Australian men who allegedly undressed and soaped up at a car wash have been charged with exposure and public nuisance.
Police say the two 19-year-old and two 23-year-old men paid for a wash before stripping nude and cleaning themselves in the soapy water while their female companions took photos.
Police arrived mid-cycle after being called Sunday by Smart Wash operators in the town of Biloela in Queensland state. The four men are due to appear in court next month.
Police and the car wash operator warned the public against mimicking the men, with police saying Tuesday the high-pressure washer could be dangerous, especially if it goes in the eyes.
