MEXICO CITY (AP) - Missing in Mexico: One truck carrying 5,000 condoms, 800 HIV tests and a 23-foot (7 meter) inflatable prophylactic.

The coordinator of an HIV/AIDS awareness tour, Polo Gomez, said Wednesday that the "Condomovil" was parked in front of a friend's house in Mexico City when it disappeared Sunday evening. He believes the truck was stolen, but he doesn't know why. Police are still investigating.

The truck should be easy to spot. It features painted images of a peeled banana, the exposed part shaped like a condom, and a shirtless man saying: "I protect myself. Do you?"

24-year-old shawn E. Jones, of Newark, the man whose truck was seen driving erratically and swerving across a roadway told police that he had been trying to roll a marijuana cigarette.

He was charged with drunken driving, possession with intent to deliver narcotics, disregarding an officer’s signal, maintaining a vehicle for keeping a controlled substance, possession of marijuana, malicious mischief by a motor vehicle, reckless driving, no proof of insurance, and being breathtakingly stupid.
