Police officers have threatened to arrest people and ban them from their Facebook page after they made fun of their tiny cannabis bust online.
West Yorkshire Police shared a post about a ‘small quantity of cannabis’ which was seized from a ‘young man who was parked up alone’.
Comments then flooded in making light of the bust, comparing the drug bust to notorious Mexican cartel runner Pablo Escobar.
The police post said: “PCSO 687 Ian Campbell and PCSO 882 Ben Hughes attended Walton colliery nature park and seized a small quantity of Cannabis from a young man who was parked up alone. Walton Colliery nature park will be firmly on our patrol plan in the future to prevent this behaviour.”
The incident happened in Wakefield. After the post went up, the force then issued a further warning to people in the comments.
