"The cell phones can be used as detonators. Batteries can be disassembled and used to make methamphetamine. Obviously there's something wrong here," Caro Police Chief Ben Page said.
The men told police they were buying the phones, which cost about $20 and come with a charger, taking them out of their packaging and selling them to a wholesaler in Texas for about $38 without the charger.
Batteries can be used to make methamphetamine????????? Is that true? Something to do with the lithium? And people are so worried about keeping Sudafed behind the counter in pharmacies?
