Police in Alabama Warned Against the Rise of Meth-Crazed Alligators

Tennessee police have kindly suggested that meth users abstain from flushing their stash down the toilet lest they create tweaked-out alligators or “meth-gators.” They added they should call law enforcement instead to ensure the proper disposal of the drugs.


Officers with the Loretto Police Department sent the message out following a recent drug bust in a now deleted Facebook post, as Birmingham News reported.


During the arrest of suspected drug dealer Andy Perry, that man was found trying to flush paraphernalia down the toilet along with large quantities of methamphetamines. According to the Mind Unleashed, Perry was eventually arrested when police found 12 grams of meth, 24 fluid ounce of liquid meth, and various other paraphernalia throughout his home.


Perry is facing charges of drug possession with intent for resale, possession of drug paraphernalia, and tampering with evidence.


While it's still unclear how much of the product he managed to flush down his toilet, the Loretto officers saw the incident as a good chance for a bit of humor along with a chance to remind drug users of the potentially severe environmental impact of flushing substances down the toilet.


In a Facebook statement, the department warned against “hyped-up” animals roaming throughout the region, including possible “meth-gators” wandering throughout North Alabama.


The post, that has since disappeared along with the department’s Facebook page, read:


“On a more or less serious note: Folks …please don’t flush your drugs m’kay. When you send something down the sewer pipe it ends up in our retention ponds for processing before it is sent down stream. Now our sewer guys take great pride in releasing water that is cleaner than what is in the creek, but they are not really prepared for meth.”

Ducks, Geese, and other fowl frequent our treatment ponds and we shudder to think what one all hyped up on meth would do. Furthermore, if it made it far enough we could create meth-gators in Shoal Creek and the Tennessee River down in North Alabama.

They’ve had enough methed up animals the past few weeks without our help. So, if you need to dispose of your drugs just give us a call and we will make sure they are disposed of in the proper way.”

While meth-gators have not yet been sighted in Alabama so far, police are warning the public not to take any chances. The department suggests dropping drugs—such as prescription pills—off at the local city hall, or contacting law enforcement for possible assistance.
