Six Connecticut senior citizens — five men and one woman — have been arrested for lewd behavior in a park for allegedly having sex in public, reports say.

The six seniors ranging in age from 62 to 85 were arrested in Fairfield, Connecticut, after being witnessed engaging in a wild sex romp, according to ABC affiliate WVIT.

The Fairfield police say that the group was caught by officers on Aug. 9 during a patrol of the Grace Richardson conservation area, a place known as a meet-up spot.

Officers say they had set up a surveillance spot focused on an area often mentioned on the Internet as a place for people to meet and have sex. The group of seniors was caught live on surveillance video, officers said.

The five men and one 85-year-old woman now face charges including breach of peace and public indecency. They were released after being handed court dates.
