WILKES-BARRE — An unidentified man said he believed that someone put something in his drink which caused him to not remember anything for three days

The man reported on Friday that he had been drinking beer at a bar on North Main Street, when he stepped out to have a cigarette and that was the last thing he remembers.

The man claimed that while under the influence, someone took his sneakers, hat and cell phone.

The man said he was then admitted to a local hospital where he tested positive for heroin and cocaine.

Employees at the establishment said they were unaware of any recent incidents.
