Mom orders from Toys 'R' Us for son's birthday, gets 800 rounds of ammunition

Mom orders from Toys 'R' Us for son's birthday, gets 800 rounds of ammunition

Batteries not included – bullets maybe.

A mother in Virginia found quite the surprise inside a toy gift she ordered online for her son’s birthday.

Jasemin Stephenson ordered a foam Minecraft sword from the Toys ‘R’ Us website last week, reports ABC 13 News Now.

When it got to her door on Tuesday, Stephenson said it seemed far too heavy for a foam sword.

When she opened the box to find out why, she found 800 rounds of 9mm ammunition sitting in the bottom, she told ABC 13.

“It’s very shocking,” she told the station. “You’re ordering from a Toys ‘R’ Us store, you don’t expect to get ammo in a box with the toys.”

Stephenson said she reached out to the company for answers.

“They said, ‘What do you want us to do, send it back’,” she told 13 News Now.

She said it’s ironic the bullets were shipped from a company with a strict ‘no guns’ policy.

“This is just completely off the wall and bizarre,” she said in the interview.

Toys “R” Us has said they’re looking into where the bullets came from, according to ABC.
