A retired woman was fined €2,000 for collecting bottles, and people raised €7,000 for her.

Anna Leeb, a retired woman, collected empty bottles in the central railway station in Munich to earn a little money. But after the railway management changed, she was forbidden to do this. Anna once took an empty bottle, and the guards took her away from the railway station. More than that, she had to pay a €2,000 fine.

After this story got to the newspapers, people got very angry. One person decided to start a fundraising campaign to pay for the fine because they thought it was unfair. And it took only a few days to raise enough money to pay the fine and even more. All the money was given to the woman.
