The case of the "penis" in the microwave was settled this morning with an agreement on a disorderly conduct plea.

McKeesport Police Capt. Bryan Washowich said Leslye Creighton, 41, of Wilkinsburg, has agreed to take full responsibility for the incident in which she asked a clerk at a Get Go convenience store to warm up a penis-shaped device in the store's microwave.

When the object gave off an odor, the clerk checked on it and found what she thought was a real penis. She reported it to police.

Ms. Creighton agreed to plead guilty to disorderly conduct. Her companion in the case, Vincent Bostic, 31, of Pittsburgh, who was also charged, will have the case against him withdrawn.

The two entered the convenience store in February, asked the clerk to place the device in the microwave in order to bring the urine-filled device up to body temperature so Ms. Creighton could pass a drug test to get a job.

Mr. Bostic's attorney, William H. Difenderfer, said Mr. Bostic has agreed to replace the $425 microwave at the store in exchange for the charges being dropped against him.
