VERMILLION, Ohio—Times are tough all over. Never mind that taking a real woman out to dinner could run up a hefty tab. But even getting a love doll version of a woman can be too expensive to get through traditional means.
Maybe that’s why one man, apparently desperate for a little fun and a certain type of woman, was not about to be denied the chance to have the girl of his dreams.
The as-yet-unidentified man drove his vehicle through the doors of an AdultMart store in Vermillion (about halfway between Columbus and Cleveland), got out without setting the brake, discarded a $300 love doll before settling on a $150 model and then drove out the rear of the building.
In all, the suspect did at least $20,000 in damage to the building and its contents.
“Desperate people do desperate things,” Tracy Holmes, the store’s manager, told The Chronicle-Telegram newspaper. “At 6 o’clock in the morning when I got here, we had no doors at all.”
Aside from taking the $150 love doll and doing massive damage, the alleged thief took nothing else, and hid his face from security cameras to try and avoid detection, authorities said.
It’s unclear why the man spurned one sex doll over another, but perhaps police can find out once they enhance security videos in an attempt to better see the vehicle’s license plate.
