A rise in spiking drinks while on a night out is arising horribly in the UK
People recently have been partying a lot more than usual due to lockdown procedures easing up over the last couple of months.
Unfortunately many people have been victims of having their drink ”spiked” which is putting a substance or liquid in someones drink in order to sedate and drug them so that they are lacking in control of their actions and loose their sense of self awareness and surrounding.
