Boston Police are cautioning residents to watch their drinks this Thanksgiving.
The department issued a warning about spiked beverages ahead of the holiday, saying in a statement that, “police would like to remind the public of the dangerousness of colorless, odorless, and tasteless drugs.” Common spiking drugs including Rohypnol, also known as roofies, GHB, and Ketamine can be covertly placed in drinks causing disorientation, confusion, even temporary paralysis and unconsciousness in those who have been drugged.
The state of Massachusetts and BPD have issued several warning about spiked drinks in recent years.
The issue has become so prevalent that earlier this week, American Pie-star Tara Reid said she’d been knocked unconscious after being drugged in a Chicago bar over the weekend.
