(CBS13) DIXON Police say a sick prank and a sickening case of child abuse occurred when a child was drugged, wrapped in tape, and put in a room where methamphetamine was smoked.

A motel room is where police say a picture of the incident was snapped with a cell phone camera. Dixon cops found out about it because the 5-month-old's mother sold the cell phone without deleting the picture.

The buyer didn't even bother calling the police.

"The person saw a patrol officer driving down the street and felt the need to flag down the officer right away," said Sgt. Chuck Coates.

"Because the child liked to be wrapped up in blankets so they thought it would be funny to wrap it up in duct tape," said Coates.
