Police seek volunteers to get drunk for them; here's what happened next

A Pennsylvania police department’s request for volunteers to get drunk for law and order purposes generated a predictably enthusiastic response.

The Kutztown Police Department sought three volunteers to drink hard liquor to the point of inebriation so officers could be trained how to administer field sobriety tests during traffic stops. A call for volunteers on Facebook accumulated hundreds of responses from social media users and over 1,000 shares in less than a day.

Read the Facebook post by Pennsylvania's Kutztown Borough Police Department inviting people to join their intiative here:

However, the post was soon updated with the news that the department had its volunteers for the April 4 training session. 

Apparently, the volunteers were required to have a clean criminal history and have a responsible party to take care of them after the training. Participants are also required to be willing to drink hard liquor until inebriated.

"Thank you all for your interest in helping us out! we have had an overwhelming response for this and at this point we have enough volunteers for this training! Those who are selected will be contacted by Chief Summers", further read the post.
