Mom arrested after putting recycling in wrong color bag

A British woman was arrested and held in a police cell — for putting her recycling in the wrong colored bags, according to reports. Mom of three Lyndsey Webb, 34, was caught putting out black bags in Ipswich rather than following a new system of orange or clear ones for recyclables. She told The Telegraph she was eventually arrested and forced to give evidence via video link from her cell, getting fined $60 and given a six-month conditional discharge. “All I did was get the color of my rubbish bags wrong and I’ve suddenly got two police officers at my door arresting me in front of my kids,” she said. “These people have put me and my family through a total nightmare.”
