Keep It In Your Pants: Gunman Holds Up Sex Shop Over Penis Pump

Sigh…so this happened.

Police in St. Paul, Minnesota are looking for a man who pulled a gun on a clerk at an adult video store just before Christmas. What was the perp’s reason? An argument over a malfunctioning sexual enhancement device.

According to Fox 9, a disgruntled shopper walked into Viva Video on Wednesday and demanded an exchange on a penis pump he said wasn’t working properly. The clerk said he wasn’t using it right and refused to take it back because it had already been used, and apparently the man decided the best course of action would be to pull out his gun and aim it at the clerk’s head.

Eventually, the man told the clerk he would return, and he decided to flee the scene (without a new pump). Police said no arrests have been made yet, but they are classifying the incident as felony aggravated assault with a firearm.

Happy holidays, folks.
