Police Officers In Argentina Fired After Blaming Rat For 1,000 Pounds Of Missing Marijuana

Apparently, it isn’t only in Nigeria that animals go into government offices to swallow things.

Eight Police Officers in Pilar, Argentina have taken been arrested after marijuana disappeared from a police warehouse and they blamed mice for it.

The police warehouse was supposed to have 13,000 pounds of marijuana but after a recent inspection, it was revealed that 1,000 pounds of marijuana was missing. When questioned about the missing marijuana, the officers told officials that mice must have eaten it.

A spokesperson for the judge stated: “Buenos Aires University experts have explained that mice wouldn’t mistake the drug for food, and that if a large group of mice had eaten it, a lot of corpses would have been found in the warehouse.”

Eight officers have been fired and will testify in front of the judge on May 4. The judge will decide on whether or not the drugs are missing due to “expedience or negligence.”
