A pigeon wearing a tiny empty backpack has been captured in a federal prison in British Columbia, which an official says is likely a way for inmates to smuggle drugs.
John Randle, the Pacific regional president at the Union of Canadian Correctional Officers, told The Canadian Press that the pigeon was found inside the Matsqui prison on Feb. 27. The backpack it carried was made of blue jeans and bedsheets—materials easily available to inmates, he said.
