– I have never seen a worse mess. This is completely unacceptable!
That’s what Carolyn Crapo (58) writes on Twitter.
Last week, she took the train from the Woodlawn station in the Bronx, where she spotted what appeared to be “a rolling meth lab.”
Meth is an abbreviation for Methamphetamine, which is a synthetic stimulant drug. It is a stronger and longer-acting variant of amphetamine, according to the report Large Norwegian encyclopedia.
– I’ve seen people take shots, grind weed and sell cocaine. But this!?, the clearly upset 58-year-old continues to tweet.
She says it is incredibly sad to think that children and young people have to see such things, and describes the whole thing as “horribly tragic”.
The lips go viral: – Very strange
In the wake of Crapo’s twitter post, several people have spoken up, according to New York Post. Several write that they are “tired of drugs and homeless people” who stay on trains and the subway.
Another passenger named Grace Bomide (29) also took the magazine out of her mouth after the incident:
“No one should have to see this. The police must step up their patrols”she comments in the same post.
More “Breaking Sad” than “Breaking Bad”
Although the mess horrified many passengers, it must be said that this was “more of a ‘Breaking Sad’ situation than a ‘Breaking Bad’ situation”, writes the 29-year-old further.
Shock discovery: What is this!?
She refers to the award-winning series “Breaking Bad”, about chemistry teacher Walter White who cooks meth.
What the New York Post refers to as “a rolling meth lab”, turned out to be a selection of allergy tablets tried to be mixed together with the chemical pseudoephedrine, which is the key ingredient in meth, according to the newspaper.
It was anyway a rather low-threshold lab that was attempted to be created on the train.
“I don’t think he would have gotten very far with that”writes a Twitter user.

Not allowed
Communications director for the train company MTA, Tim Minton, tells the New York Post that making meth on the train “is not allowed”. However, he has no comment on this single incident.
The Internet boils: – Who does that?
The CEO of Camelot Drug Treatment, Luke Nasta, has also become involved in the case:
– These pills may have been left behind by a desperate addict who was just looking for a quick fix. If an addict is desperate enough, they will try anything, she tells the newspaper.
She adds that it is unfortunate and sad, but unfortunately a brutal reality for many.
