A warning has been issued to parents in Alabama after a child was exposed to methamphetamine from a folded dollar bill. The child found the money at a local business and handed it to an adult, who then noticed a white substance on the bill. Testing confirmed the substance was methamphetamine.

The child was checked out medically and is safe. Authorities do not believe the bill was intentionally placed to harm anyone, but the case is still under investigation. Further details on this incident are available from Alabama authorities, who are reminding families to teach children to avoid picking up unknown items in public.
