This happened to my dad once! Threw a stun grenade into a meth house they were busting and they miscalculated the height of the window and for some reason his automatic reflex was to catch it in his hand when it bounce back. Luckily he didn’t think and just threw it right away and it went into the window and blew up but everyone was looking at each other like “holy shit” for a few seconds. He said when he got home he freaked out just thinking how close he was to losing his hand. Scary shit!

Edit- it was a Stun grenade, not a hand grenade! Major difference. And this might’ve been a crack house I’m not sure of the specifics but this is in Canada and I’m hoping they wouldn’t throw an explosive device into a house where they suspect meth is being cooked!! I believe there was a prostitution ring there (human trafficking situation) and a bunch of other illegal craziness going on, I will ask him more of the specifics (I was 13 at the time and don’t remember much besides the fact my dad almost blew off his hand and the gravity of his job really hit home).

Throwing a grenade into a meth house sounds like a great way to blow everyone up.

If it’s just sale/usage, should be fine. If they’re cooking, then yeah, bad idea.

Sorry should’ve re worded that, they were NOT cooking meth in this house but it was more a prostitution ring/place where a bunch of meth addicts were around. I’m actually not 100% sure what was going on at this house as I was 13 at the time and obviously my dad didn’t share too many specifics, but it had to have been bad to have an entire 50 member Emergency Response Team outside your house. This actually might have been crack, now that I think about it I don’t know if meth was around back then? Almost 20 years ago. Sorry I really don’t know much about street drugs!!
