STAPLETON, Ala. (WHNT) -- An Alabama driver was stuck by an IV needle on Wednesday that was hidden, taped under the gas pump at a gas station in Baldwin County, Loxley police said.
Police have sent the needle off for testing. The customer has been treated as a precaution.
“I have no idea the reason or rhyme behind somebody wanting to do something like this is, but it's a serious felony crime. The criteria behind this could mean a multitude of things. Number one, just in itself with nothing on the needle would be a felony assault,” said Loxley Police Lt. Doug Phillips.
