NSW police say they’re “not the fun police” but have urged music festival attendees to avoid all drugs because they can never be certain what the substances contain.
The hard line stance comes after a 19-year-old woman died after taking what is believed to be pills at the FOMO music festival at Parramatta Park, in Sydney’s west.
NSW Police Force’s Assistant Commissioner Mark Jones told reporters that officers who were at the dance festival didn’t set out to be the "fun police" but were always vigilant for illegal behaviour.
"There is no such level of safe use of a prohibited drug – they (drugs) are very inconsistent, you don’t know what the effects are going to be," he said on Sunday.
"Just don’t take it in the first place.
