A German woman’s concern that a suspicious noise in her apartment was an intruder turned out to be her vibrator–and she was mortified when police dispatched to her home made the discovery.

According to reports, the noise was so loud that the emergency line operator was able to hear it over the phone, and police were sent to her home to investigate the matter.

A police statement said: ‘Daringly, and with the occupier’s permission, one of the officers opened the drawer of a wardrobe where the noise was coming from.

‘Underneath some clothes he found a very personal, battery-operated object which had obviously switched itself on… The tenant’s face abruptly changed color.”
