Man charged with attempting to fake drug test

A Butler Township man used a condom filled with clean urine in an attempt to pass a drug test last week, Butler County detectives said.

Shane Allen Nichols, 23, is now facing a criminal charge for trying to beat his mandatory test by using someone else’s urine.

The incident occurred about 9:30 a.m. Tuesday when Nichols walked into the county’s adult probation office in Butler packing the illicit prophylactic.

While processing the urine drug screen, according to court documents, a probation officer found the condom filled with urine not his own hidden inside his boxer shorts.

He is charged with attempting to furnish drug free urine. He faces a preliminary hearing May 9.
