Contraband Christmas: Drone drops crab legs, steak, weed and cigs care package into South Carolina prison
'Twas three weeks before Christmas, and in the prison yard, a drone-dropped package was found by a guard. With steak, weed and crab legs, and cigarettes for days. And to season it all, a tin of Old Bay.
The illicit meal was dropped into the Lee Correctional Institution prison yard by a drone, the South Carolina Department of Corrections said on social platform with the hashtag #ContrabandChristmas.
"Seems some folks were planning an early holiday Old Bay crab boil and steak dinner along with their marijuana and cigarettes — all dropped by a drone at Lee CI," the post reads.
A photo from the prison showed a raw steak still in the grocery store packing, crab legs and Old Bay with side plastic baggies of marijuana and a couple of cartons of cigarettes. The drone was also seized Sunday morning, authorities said.
