A Facebook post from an Ohio police department about a call they got from a man on drugs is going viral because of the bizarre nature of the call. 

According to the South Euclid Police Department, a 19-year-old man called just before 9 p.m. last Thursday, saying he swallowed a pregnant spider that had given birth in his stomach.

He said baby spiders were crawling out of his mouth and he could "feel all 8 legs" crawling around in his throat. 

Police later discovered that the man had ingested LSD just an hour before. He was transported to a local hospital for treatment. 

"If this Facebook post doesn't convince you not to partake in the use of drugs nothing will," police wrote on their Facebook page.
