One Twitter poster claimed it was “all about control” for the Victorian police officers.Īnother commented sarcastically, “So relieved he’s got coffee in there, take that Covid! “Thanks to the utmost courage and dedication of the cops faced with what could have been an empty cup!” “Well at least there was coffee in the cup which means that we’re all safe.” Protect & Serve (coffee)?”Īnother said: “At least he changed his glove before touching the cup to prevent passing any germs or viruses that may have been on his glove…oh wait…” adding a thinking face emoji.
Others joked online about the exchange, one saying, “As a tax payer I am relieved this dangerous situation had 5 police officers on hand. While one Twitter poster questioned, “What is this Nazi Germany”, another said “Yeah tell them to piss off” and claimed “There’s no law or CHO direction that gives them the power to do that.” One Twitter user asked “Why is police checking if cap is full or empty?” and another posted “Why does it matter if there’s coffee or not?”.Īnother protested: “What motivates these people? They live in Australia!! Not North Korea? What kind of a world do they want to live in?” Some Twitter users, who included those in foreign countries, seemed unaware that Victorian Government rules allow people to remove masks when “consuming food, non-alcoholic drink or medicine”. The tweet posted by and retweeted by former Australian senator David Leyonhjelm has caused confusion. God bless” and another officer gives him a thumbs up. When the officer shakes the cup and finds it contains coffee, he hands it back to the citizen and waves him on. “Do you just mind if I check is there’s actually anything in it”” the male officer asks and takes the coffee cup with his gloved hand. However, others have praised the police and criticised the coffee drinker for not wearing a mask outdoors while holding onto their drink.Ī video posted on Twitter shows a citizen out in a Victorian park being stopped by an on-duty police officer who asks to check if the person’s coffee cup is empty. Victoria Police filmed checking if a person’s coffee cup was full while outdoors have been slammed on Twitter for “Nazi” and “North Korea” style tactics.Ĭhecking coffees to make sure your mask is off for a valid reason 🤯🤯🤯 /9D68rZjcgf
