Australian Police Hunt Blow-Up Doll Sex Bandit

`It`s totally bizarre. It`s a real concern that someone like that is out on the street,` said one of the owners of the adult sex shops.

An Australian man broke into three adult shops, had sex with blow up dolls named "Jungle Jane" and then dumped his plastic conquests in a nearby alley, local media reported on Wednesday.

"It's totally bizarre. It's a real concern that someone like that is out on the street," said one of the owners of the adult sex shops in Cairns in northern Queensland state.

"He has been taking the dolls out the back and blowing them up and using the dolls and leaving them in the alley," the owner, who gave the name of Vogue, told the Cairns Post newspaper (www.cairnspost.com.au).

Police told the Cairns Post that scientific officers had taken DNA samples, fingerprints and pictures of the crime scene.
