Why a Student's Lunchbox Sparked a Warning From Georgia Police

South Fulton Police urge parents to check lunchboxes after a student brought an 11% ABV canned martini to school, highlighting risks during busy mornings.

  • A Facebook post on Wednesday from the City of South Fulton Police Department warned parents after a student brought a canned martini in a lunchbox, showing a photo of the can beside snacks.
  • Police said the mix-up stemmed from rushed mornings and oversight, urging families to slow down and double-check the canned cocktail that can resemble juice or seltzer.
  • The can's label shows its ingredients and alcohol content, with the beverage made by Cutwater being 11% ABV, as seen in the image.
  • The department shared a checklist urging parents that `If it says 12% ABV it does NOT belong next to a PB&J` and told parents to `TIGHTEN UP.` after the social media post garnered more than 7,000 reactions, nearly 1,000 shares, and at least 700 comments.
  • Police warned parents to check lunchboxes before the Fulton County Schools Police resource officers inventory them, noting a Cutwater rep could not be reached on Thursday and children shouldn’t be the only ones with ID-checked beverages in the cafeteria.
