Sweetwater Police yesterday confiscated 30 pounds of candy laced with THC. Authorities responded to business parking lot for a suspicious person in a vehicle. The automobile was searched and officers allegedly located three large bags in the trunk which contained over 200 THC-laced edibles packaged to resemble store-bought products. Police Chief Byrum said this is a concern of his department because of the way these drugs were packaged, which makes it dangerous for kids.

The case remains under investigation.
