A mother of three young boys in Missouri was shocked to find cannabis gummy worms in her 5-year-old son's candy bag Saturday.
Tiffany Burroughs said she discovered the edible candy drugs after returning from a Halloween event with her sons."They loved going, dressing up in their costumes," Burroughs said.Burroughs noticed the candy's unusual package at the event in a bowl, but she did not think to investigate until she inspected her boys' candy.
"I remembered it when we walked through the door, and I said, 'Oh yeah, let me see that.' I looked at it and was like, 'Oh yeah, that’s definitely not for kids,'" she said.Burroughs contacted the authorities, who in turn notified JJ’s Restaurant, the report noted. "Me and the manager and the other owner walked through the lot. I mean we looked through everyone's candy, and we couldn't find anything," co-owner Stephen Bell said.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
"We don't believe at this time there was malicious intent. That somehow these gummy worms got mixed in with candy because they do look like candy," Lt. Tom Wilkison of the St. Charles Police Department said.
