Smuggling in the covid-19 era

New Zealand police have made a bizarre arrest after a pair of alleged gang associates were caught trying to enter Auckland with a boot* full of KFC chicken and tens of thousands of dollars.

 

The men were charged with breaching the country's tough Covid-19 rules.

Under Auckland's strict Level 4 lockdown, all restaurants, including take-away services, remain closed.

 

Police photos showed buckets of chicken, coleslaw, fries, and four large bags containing other KFC items.

Soggy fried chicken and fries... is it really worth it? I guess they could always bake / air-fry them...

 

Kudos to Australia's strict covid rules though. Look at Canada, we got covidiots protesting against the vaccine mandate and taking up ICU beds 🙄
