It was on Wednesday that an inmate in La Porte County Jail in the US state of Indiana was to be body searched, but refused to cooperate, writes Sky News.
The staff eventually got him to “reluctantly” agree to be examined with a so-called body scanner.
During the scan, what appeared to be an “unknown object inside the inmate’s anal opening” was discovered, writes Sky News.
The wildest fittings
Further investigations showed that the man had a pair of scissors over 20 centimeters long in his butt, the La Porte County Sheriff’s Office writes on Facebook.
“A strange place”, writes the police.
– A short time later, the scissors were removed from the inmate without damage, says a spokesperson for the prison, according to Sky News.
Derek J. Allen of the Sheriff’s Office says it “successfully prevented a dangerous, sharp object from entering the jail.”
Since the body scanner was introduced in the prison in 2017, it has uncovered several items attempted to be smuggled in. Including tattoo equipment and drugs, writes Sky News.
