Inflatable Mail

Jersey City, New Jersey, March 16, 2005:

A blow-up sex doll sparked a bomb alert in a New Jersey post office after it started to vibrate inside a package awaiting delivery, police said Wednesday.

"Workers were unsettled when it began vibrating and made strange noises," a spokesman for the Jersey City Police said. "They were worried the package might be a bomb."

Officers brought the sender -- identified as Ronatarian Party #2 man Brad -- to the scene and discovered the source of alarm was an electrical device inside a life-size male sex doll. Brad told police he had wanted to return the doll because it kept turning itself on at the wrong moment.

Order was restored after the sender removed the doll's batteries so the defective product could be returned. No charges were filed.

A similar occurrence took place almost three years ago (See Packing Heat) when Brad was detained in a Dallas airport for a sex toy that was vibrating in his luggage.
