A british man suspected of swallowing a drug stash has been freed after he refused to go to the toilet for over six weeks.
24-year-old Lamarr Chambers was arrested in Essex on 17 Jan and charged with two counts of possessing class A drugs, reports The Independent.
He allegedly swallowed a package of crack cocaine and heroin while being chased by officers from the police gang and urban street crime unit.
The alleged offender refused to be X-rayed or take laxatives during his time in custody, with police tweeting daily updates of what they described as "poo watch".
After a series of seven hearings on extending his stay in the cells, the alleged offender was released "following medical and legal advice," with a spokesman saying 'his health, wellbeing and dignity were paramount at all times".
Surely one of the drugs the man swallowed must have been Imodium!
Fred was like a fish out of water - well actually, he was indeed a fish out of water.
Found unexpectedly floundering on the floor of a kitchen in Bristol, UK, Fred the fish was alive and well and comfortably transferred to a saucepan, not for cooking but simply because it was a handy container of water.
But how did Fred find himself in such a waterless predicament?
Clue: Thor the cat (pictured) was sitting beside him - hmmm.
