18,000 Cases Of Red Bull Energy Drinks Found Laced With Cocaine

Nearly 18,000 cases of Red Bull energy drinks have been confiscated by Taiwanese authorities after slight traces of cocaine were discovered in the drinks.

Worth about $10 million US, the Red Bull drinks were taken from the local importer’s warehouses according to the Investigation Bureau. They were part of a shipment that arrived from Austria in April, of which some were available from retailers and department stores for 50-65 Taiwan dollars a can, the bureau said.

The bureau said it had questioned the importer, who was also planning to launch a large-scale marketing campaign Monday to start selling the drinks in convenience stores.

Authorities have currently ordered the drinks to be removed from shelves pending further investigation.

Wow, now I know why I’m so addicted to this stuff! Cocaine, it’s a hell of a drug!
