Dumbass Jogger Gets Sick From Beer He Finds on Roadway

SOUTH KINGSTOWN, R.I. A South Kingstown man who became ill after he drank from a beer bottle ingested a caustic liquid.

Police say the liquid that sent Michael Darigan to the hospital last Sunday resembles lye.

Lye is a highly concentrated solution of potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide. It's often found in commercial drain and oven cleaners.

The 53-year-old Darigan found the bottle along his jogging route last week.

Sergeant Thomas Owens says there's no evidence suggesting Darigan was personally targeted.

Local police sent two bottles of the liquid to the state Department of Health for testing.

Darigan's wife has said her husband began vomiting immediately after drinking from the bottle. Darigan remains hospitalized.
