Needles are being hidden in strawberries across Australia

World news 어제
The strawberry industry in Australia is in crisis following the discovery of sewing needles pushed inside the fruit. The first case was reported last week in Queensland, but needles have also been found in other areas of the country. $100,000 AU ($72,000 US) is being offered for information leading to an arrest of the culprits.

Customers who purchased strawberries in the last week are being urged to throw them out after sewing needles were found in the fruit.
