If you throw drugs in the toilet, you could create "shapeshifters," say the cops

"Our sewers are now very proud to release cleaner water than the creek, but they are not really prepared for methamphetamine," according to a social media article from the Loretto Police Department. . "Ducks, geese and other birds frequent our treatment ponds and we shudder to think of what a methamphetamine would do."

The suspect has been arrested, but police say it is becoming an increasingly important issue for the city, as drugs in the sewers end up in detention ponds to be treated before they are sent downstream.

The police warn that if the drugs go far enough, they will eventually be consumed by gators in Shoal Creek.
