ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) Reality in the illegal drug world is mimicking fiction. Spokesman Kevin Abar of the federal Department of Homeland Security in Albuquerque says distributors are selling methamphetamine tinted blue in the Four Corners region KOB-TV reports that's something that was depicted on the hit TV series “Breaking Bad,'' the show about an Albuquerque-based meth operation.
Abar says tinting meth blue is a way for distributors to advertise and brand their product. He says the blue meth now being sold makes people sick. He says it's been cut with chemicals to make it blue.
“Breaking Bad'' last year ended its popular run after five seasons.
