City Panicked Over Grenade, But In The End It Was Completely Unexpected | the Chronicle

The event happened in Germany, in the forest of the tourist town of Passau, in the south of this country. A woman went for a run and was interrupted by what appeared to be a grenade in the middle of the grass. Panicked, she informed the German police that it was not long in coming… Who would have thought it was a sextoy?

The team arrived at the scene with bombs and reinforcement clothing, having previously gathered a list of hypotheses about the grenade. It could be an external threat, a country declaring war or a terrorist attack. But when they checked the bag where the suspected explosive was, they found condoms, lubricant and a USB cable.

“An internet search confirmed the suspicion. In fact, there are sex toys in the form of hand grenades. That’s what it was “, explained the police to VICE to justify the confusion. They also added that due to the decomposition of the bag the items had been there for a long time but “We can’t speculate how they got there or why”. What yes, any kind of external threat has been ruled out.

However, in Germany it is common to find explosives or weapons belonging to the Second World War. For example, at the end of last year, more than 13,000 residents were evacuated due to the discovery of a British bomb.
