German police are currently on the bizarre case of woman who allegedly abets robberies by spraying people with breast milk, distracting them while others apparently steal money. The woman, dubbed "The Milk Sprayer" by police (really!), recently hit a Darmstadt pharmacy , blasting two employees.

Police spokesman Ferdinand Derigs told the Daily Mail that the woman tried to buy a €20 vacuum pump with a €200 note and when the cashier went to get change, the woman "sent a stream of milk into the face of the employee." The woman sprayed another cashier soon after.

"The staff and customers were frozen to pillars of salt, so unused as they were to this extraordinary act," Derigs told the UK's Mirror.

With the cashiers confused and wet with breast milk, they apparently missed someone lifting €100 from a cash register.

"She created the confusion to steal," Derigs told the Daily Mail. "This was a most extraordinary crime. We have never dealt with such a thing before."

Police describe the woman as between the ages 35 and 40 and "as strong, with long dark hair tied into a pony tail" and with a foreign accent.
