Concerned about an apparent security breach at the federal courthouse in Harrisburg, a Pennsylvania apartment dweller took photos of a man and woman having sex on the roof and sent them to a local television station.

But not to worry: The situation wasn’t an example of a courthouse security breach, officials say. That’s because the one of the people in the photos works for the U.S. Marshal’s office.

An investigation continues, said U.S. Marshal Martin Pane. “In the meantime, we are confident that the security integrity of the federal building is intact,” Pane told the Patriot-News. He declined to identify the employee, or say if it was the man or the woman. But he promised that the incident would be handled in accordance with the U.S. Marshals Service policies.
