What Waterloo police do with all the kegs they seize on St. Patrick's Day
Waterloo Regional Police have been posting plenty of photos of kegs they've seized from St. Patrick's Day house parties in Waterloo.
But have you ever wondered what happens to those kegs once the police take them?
Here's your answer:
Police remove at least two kegs from an address on Hickory Street in Waterloo. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/illegalsaleofalcohol?src=hash">#illegalsaleofalcohol</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/StPatricksDay?src=hash">#StPatricksDay</a> <a href="https://t.co/qXxViSUCkr">pic.twitter.com/qXxViSUCkr</a>

<a href="https://twitter.com/WRPSToday">@WRPSToday</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CBCKW891">@CBCKW891</a> out of curiosity, do you mean destroy as in empty then recycle the keg, or does the keg get put in a dumpster?

<a href="https://twitter.com/WRPSToday">@WRPSToday</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CBCKW891">@CBCKW891</a> practically speaking, do you return them emptied? If so, does that mean the WRPS has a keg tap for these situations?

<a href="https://twitter.com/brendanlowther">@brendanlowther</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CBCKW891">@CBCKW891</a> If kegs are full, entire thing gets returned. Other opened alcohol is disposed of.
