POLICE CALLED OVER "SEXY TOY" NOISE... HAHAHA!

POLICE smashed down the door of a city flat after a noise complaint from neighbours - and were greeted with a buzzing vibrator.

Angry residents in the Berlin apartment block had called cops complaining that it sounded like someone was using an electric drill in the empty flat.

Officers who attended the building tried in vain to reach the 23-year-old female resident.

But after being unable to get a response they eventually decided to break in the door in.

When they did they found a vibrator that had turned itself on and was buzzing around on the floor.

And the young woman will not only have to face her neighbours when she returns home - she'll have to pay for the price of a new door.
