Indonesian robbers steal condoms, pills, cash

Indonesian police are scratching their heads after six armed men stole thousands of condoms and birth control pills from a women's reproductive health office.

Local police official Made Suharya said the masked men knocked a guard on his head Wednesday morning before ransacking the office on the main island of Java.

They grabbed several thousand condoms and other contraceptives from the shelves and then cracked open a safe deposit box, fleeing the scene with around $1,000.

Suharya said police in the town of Pekalongan are still investigating the unusual theft.

Birth control is legal and available in most parts of Indonesia.
