Police confiscate drug dwarf!
Oosterhout - A funny garden gnome has been targeted by the Dutch police.
The police were as shocked as this garden gnome looks after it was found in the Dutch province of Noord-Brabant.
"We know that drugs come in many shapes and sizes, but every now and then we come across something special," the investigators wrote on Facebook on Friday.
The special thing about this figure is the material from which it was made. Instead of making the dwarf from conventional materials such as clay or plastic, this one was made from two kilograms of MDMA.
This intoxicating and dangerous substance is actually found in ecstasy tablets, and quite a few people have died from consuming it during a wild night of partying.
The police officers became suspicious when they found the garden gnome stored among other narcotics: "A strange place for a garden gnome." A subsequent test revealed why the gnome had such a shocked expression.
