In Ohio, an adult store was broken into by a man who used a stolen truck to steal one of the priciest sex toys available on the market.
The individual, whose name has not been revealed, reportedly took a red truck along with a trailer, ramming his way through the front entrance of the AdultMart store.
This all seemed to be in pursuit of a $750 AUD product, which was referred to as a ‘makeshift vagina’.
Detective Tony Kovacs from the Lorain County Sheriff’s Department characterized the incident as ‘definitely weird’.
‘It’s quite bizarre to steal such an expensive vehicle just to break into a store for a sex toy,’ he remarked.
According to reports, the suspect had previously broken into a nearby establishment where the truck was parked and managed to unlock it.
He then drove down to the AdultMart, crashed into the store’s front, and made a beeline for the item.
Authorities believe he might have been a frequent visitor, as he seemed to know exactly where to go upon entering.
John Tirbaso, the owner of JT recycling lot from which the truck was taken, expressed his ‘shock’ at the incident.
‘I remarked, “Wow, you know the economy is in bad shape, so I guess things like this will occur,” but when he explained what happened, it completely threw me off,’ he shared.
Upon reviewing CCTV footage, Tirbaso confirmed that it was not one of his employees who had taken the vehicle.
Interestingly, the alleged thief returned the truck after he had secured the item he sought after.
Notably, this same AdultMart was targeted in September 2009, when a man drove a vehicle into the back of the store, made off with a sex toy, then exited through the front while still in the vehicle.
