A man from Florida has been arrested for allegedly having sexual intercourse with a stuffed doll of the character Olaf from Frozen.

On October 22, shoppers at the Target store in St Petersberg allegedly saw 20-year-old Cory Meader take the snowman toy from a display of Disney merchandise, before proceeding to hump the plush toy in public.

Meader reportedly rubbed himself against the toy until he ejaculated, and then attempted to do the same thing to a unicorn toy immediately after climaxing.

Disturbed by Meader's bizarre behavior, the police were summoned to the scene and Meader was arrested on charges of criminal mischief.

Both of the toys Meader used in his quest to achieve sexual gratification have since been destroyed due to contamination from Meader's ejaculate. All told, the damage inflicted purportedly totaled around $200.

In a police report recovered by The Smoking Gun, a member of the Pinellas County Sherrif's Office wrote: "The defendant was read Miranda rights and admitted to doing 'stupid stuff' and admitted that he had 'nutted' on the Olaf stuffed animal. Defendant has a history of this type of behavior via his father (not on the scene). The merchandise could not be re-sold and [was] destroyed due to circumstances [sic]."

According to Disney.com, the character of Olaf is: "The friendliest snowman in Arendelle. He is innocent, outgoing and loves all things summer. Olaf may be a bit naive, but his sincerity and good-natured temperament make him a true friend to Anna and Elsa."

It remains to be seen when Meader's sentencing will be, but he could face a misdemeanour fine of up to $1,000 if found guilty in court.
