Australian Cops Recover Baby Bottle Bong Decorated With Swastika
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
The police report sounds like a Madlibs collection: a baby bottle, a bong, and a swastika. And yet, according to the Wanneroo Police Department in Australia, it’s nothing new for them.
Wanneroo police were conducting a search of a suspect’s home when one officer stumbled upon a baby bottle that had been fashioned into a bong and emblazoned with a swastika. The owner of the smoking device was arrested.
“They turn everything into a smoking implement,” one officer said of drug addicts. “It doesn’t surprise us.”
