Angola Police are investigating a bizarre explosions on a neighborhood street Sunday night. They say somebody turned a stuffed "Smurf" doll into a bomb.

Angola Police say just before seven o'clock Sunday night, somebody detonated one of the dolls on the 200-block of Henry Street. You may remember the characters from a popular 1980's children's cartoon.

The blast was enough to rattle nearby homes, but nobody was injured and no property was damage.

Neighbors told police they saw a dark-colored car speeding away from the scene shortly after. Detectives say they are following leads, but have not released a suspect name or description.
