14 DAY TRIAL // A 21-year-old California man proved to be a real “Breaking Bad” fan, as he not only developed a methamphetamine lab in his home, but he was also wearing a T-shirt from the show when he was busted.
Daniel Kowalski has been arrested in his California home wearing a Los Pollos Hermanos T-shirt, the fictional chicken restaurant featured in the popular show. He is facing drug charges for the second time in less than a year after a methamphetamine lab was found in his house, reports TMZ.
After receiving a tip, police raided Kowalski's home in a suburban area of the city on Monday. In his coach home in La Grange Highlands property, officers found glass beakers, burners, chemicals, and instructions for cooking meth, as well as some jars with psychedelic mushrooms.
However, authorities say the lab wasn't active when they performed the search.
The 21-year-old man has been charged with four felonies, including possession of a controlled substance and possession of methamphetamine manufacturing materials, and a misdemeanor count of possession of drug paraphernalia. In July 2013, he was detained on similar charges.
Kowalski's mug shot shows him wearing a yellow T-shirt with a big logo for Los Pollos Hermanos, the restaurant owned by Gustavo Fring, Walter White's boss from the TV series.
Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart even confirmed that on his Twitter account saying, “For those asking, Daniel Kowalski was actually wearing a @Los_Pollos_ABQ shirt at the time of arrest.”
The young man obviously followed the show, which presents the adventures of a methamphetamine manufacturer, and even gathered information on how to cook the illegal substance.
