Don't Go To The Restroom At Walmart

betteb — Sun, 15 Mar 2015 13:25:14 GMT

MUNCIE, Ind. (AP) -- A restroom at a Walmart in eastern Indiana has been closed indefinitely after an employee discovered a working meth lab inside.

State police say a Walmart employee alerted police after seeing a man he described as suspicious enter the restroom about 11:30 p.m. Thursday with a backpack and leave without it. The Star Press reports that members of a state police meth suppression team removed the dangerous chemicals.

Delaware County Health Department inspectors closed the restroom and a nearby women's restroom until they could be "decontaminated" by a professional cleaning company.

State police say people who make methamphetamine are leaving "the deadly explosive chemicals in public places to return later to get the finished product," rather than risk explosions and contamination at their own homes.

If I was going to make a meth lab, I believe I could find a more *secluded* spot than the local WAL-MART!

I think Walmart is used for everything yucky.I have been in there and seen poop on the floor,urine in the change rooms and once I used the restroom and a man and woman were in the stall and I am sure you can guess that situation.

And no one ever knocked on the stall door or offered poo-pourri?

I do too! I have used that restroom before though Betteb as that area used to be part of my sales territory. I know exactly where that Walmart was. I hate Walmart anyway, but I do go there, on occasion, due to the cheap prices on some items.

Yes me too. I have to save my $$ for beauty and fashion

Walmart can be scary. We have one here, close by, but I try to avoid it most of the time...fairly recent shooting in the parking lot

The parking lot of the local Walmart has been a scary place according to recent police activity. That is enough to keep me away. But I don't think the dollars I choose to spend elsewhere will damage the company's bottom line.

Meth at Wal-Mart? That explains the ""people of Wal-Mart"" photos.

Stores & parking lots like this are usually mirror images of their surrounding neighborhood.

If you have a lot of police activity in an open parking lot (strip malls, big name stores, etc), the police activity within the hidden streets of the neighborhood is even more scary.

This is not good. Now we have to be on alert for meth labs in backpacks.

Yes as a general rule that's true. The one I referenced, the neighborhood is borderline. There are worse in my town. I live far enough from it to be in a better neighborhood, but it's the closest Walmart. I usually drive a little further to a better one.

When Walmart went 24 hours, they failed miserably security wise. They don't keep enough staff or security overnight to keep watch.
