Police investigating reports of a drunken youth in Melbourne's west uncovered a stun gun disguised as a cellphone.
Police say the device, found last Thursday and acquired from overseas, looked like a cellphone but had a stun gun attached to it.
They seized the weapon from a 16-year-old boy.
The boy is expected to be charged with possessing a prohibited weapon.
The phone/stun gun, branded as the Immobiliser, can be bought online for US$51 (NZ$78) but the manufacturer warns that they are illegal in Australia.
The weapons is a 900k-volt stun gun in the shape of mobile.
