A 47-year-old man waved a jacket at a street performer in Taipei's Ximending district, and police plan to fine him even though the performer declined to press charges.

• The performer called police after being told a man was waving a jacket at him during his act near the Ximen MRT station.
• The man told officers he was not trying to bother anyone and just wanted to interact with the performer.
• Security camera footage showed no physical attack, and the performer said he did not want to file a complaint.
• Police still decided the behavior broke Taiwan's public order law, which covers causing a disturbance in public places.

Outlook: The man will face a fine under the public order law, with no criminal case expected.
