SALISBURY — Bradley Keith Hampton’s drug test Wednesday afternoon didn’t go well.
As part of the rules of his probation, Hampton must submit to regular drug screenings at a probation office on Kerr Street.
Salisbury Police reports say Hampton, 29, of the 500 block of Brook Circle, borrowed some clean urine and put it in a plastic hand-sanitizer bottle.
He concealed the bottle under his clothing and had tied it around his waist with a shoelace, reports said.
While he was in a restroom to give his sample, reports said, the probation officer could hear squirting noises made from the pump on top of the hand-sanitizer bottle.
Hampton was cited for defrauding a drug test, which is a misdemeanor. It was not reported how the failed test could affect his probation.
