Three men with no clothes on traveled in the Moscow subway early on Sunday after betting with young women, police said.

The three friends undressed and entered the Novogireyevo station in the Russian capital's east after midnight.

"A police detail met them at the next station, Perovo, but only managed to detain one man, as the two others got into a train and escaped," a police spokesman said.

"The detained 20-year-old Muscovite confessed that he and his friends bet with their acquaintances, young women, that they would go on a ride in the subway naked," the spokesman said.

"The girls were waiting for them at the Perovo station," he said, adding that the detained offender was fined and then released.
