Yellow Jacket, a company based out of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, is making history by selling the world's first stun gun iPhone case, the Daily Mail reported.


The case comes with a 650K volt that, according to their website, 'is capable of halting an aggressive adult male.'

It also has its own battery, which can charge a phone for up to twenty hours.


Their website touts the innovation as a great advancement for personal defense.


Currently the Yellow Jacket iPhone 4S case is available to pre-order through the company's website for $139.99.
Cases for the iPhone 5 are expected to arrive later this year.


The inventor of the product, Seth Froom, was robbed in his home last year by an armed assailant.


Though his phone was stolen, the case for it was not. This led to Froom coming up with the idea of a stun gun in a phone case.


'My story is one of triumph and not tragedy.'

The cases are currently available in the colors black, white, gold and pink.

But they are not able to be shipped everywhere. The company cannot send them to New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Rhode Island, Wisconsin or Washington, D.C.
