Prisoner enjoys drinking hand sanitizer

By at 10:16 am Tuesday, Feb 6

A prisoner in Maryland began behaving erratically after drinking one gallon of hand sanitizer, which contains alcohol.
The inmate's blood alcohol level was found to be more than four times Maryland's intoxication standard.

Since the first incident the Maryland Poison Center has received reports of six other adults in the state who consumed hand sanitiser, which is 70 per cent alcohol, because 'they were looking for a buzz'.
