District police officers from the County Police Headquarters in Bolesławiec, while patrolling the city to check compliance with sanitary restrictions, noticed a man who was not covering his mouth and nose in a public place.

The officers:

The 28-year-old resident of Bolesławiec had forgotten not only to put on a face mask, but also that possessing drugs is prohibited by law. In the suspect’s phone case, the district officers found a white powder in a small bag.

They added:

A police forensic technician confirmed that the substance secured was methamphetamine.

The young resident of Bolesławiec was not only fined for failing to wear a face mask, but may also end up in prison—for as long as three years.
