A 27-year-old man with a stolen life-size Miley Cyrus inflatable doll from an adult video store in his backpack and drugs was stopped Wednesday after he rode his bicycle the wrong way on the highway service road, police said.

About 3:02 p.m. police saw the man rode his bike the wrong way near Interstate Highway 37 and Corn Products Road, according to a Corpus Christi police news release. The officer found marijuana in the man's pockets. After the officer searched the man's backpack, he found the life-size Cyrus doll.
