Northern Ireland police investigates human waste in Coca Cola

Coca Cola stressed this was an isolated incident that did not affect any products currently for sale

BBC – Police have begun an investigation after what appeared to be human waste was found in drinks cans delivered to a Coca Cola factory in Northern Ireland.

The night shift at the Lisburn factory was disrupted last week when machines became clogged; Coca Cola said it had impounded all affected cans.

The company stressed this was an isolated incident that did not affect any products currently for sale.

Police are investigating reports that a consignment may have been contaminated.

As reported in the Belfast Telegraph, the cans arrive at the plant without tops on and are then filled with the drink before being sealed and sold across Northern Ireland.

“Detectives are investigating an incident at commercial premises in the Lisburn area following reports that a consignment of containers delivered to the premises had been contaminated,” said a spokesman for the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
