PASSAU, GERMANY. APRIL 27, 2021
A concerned person jogging in a Bavarian forest reports what they thought was a "hand grenade inside a plastic bag". Police cordoned off the area and dispatched a bomb squad, which later found out that the grenade in question was a rubber sex toy. And apparently, German police seem to be lagging behind on their knowledge of the 'Interwebz', or rather, the culture of the 'Interwebz'...
An explosive discovery...
Personally, I am more disturbed by that USB cord that, presumably, was part of the same bag that the ass grenade was contained in. Is that rust on the plug, or shit?...

BERLIN (AP) — A German police bomb squad called to investigate a suspected hand grenade in a Bavarian forest determined that the object actually was a rubber sex toy, authorities said Tuesday.
A jogger reported finding a bag containing the device Monday in a forest outside the city of Passau, near Germany’s borders with Austria and the Czech Republic.
The discovery of forgotten or hidden munitions is still a regular occurrence in Germany more than 75 years after the end of World War II.
But when a bomb squad arrived and inspected the contents of the bag, they determined it was a rubber grenade replica. The condoms and lubricant in the bag helped inform the hypothesis about the device’s intended use, police told German news agency dpa.
“An internet search confirmed the suspicion,” police said. “There are actually sex toys in the form of hand grenades.”
