Needle found in bread sold at Wakayama supermarket

WAKAYAMA — A needle has been found stuck in bread sold at a supermarket here, police said.

A 69-year-old woman who bought the bread was not injured as she found the needle before eating it. Police are treating the case as forcible obstruction of business.

The woman bought a bag containing five pieces of bread at the Okuwa Supermarket’s Wakayama-Nakanoshima outlet in Wakayama on May 28, and put the bread in her freezer at home, local police said.

After thawing out two of the pieces, she was about eat them on Sunday when she found a needle stuck in one of them, and alerted the store.

The incident has prompted the store to use a metal detector to check if any metal objects are in the bread it sells.
