These drugs are connected to an increase in seizures of THC- and psilocybin-infused edibles in these wrappers, state police have observed.
THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is a psychoactive substance extracted from cannabis. Psilocybin is a psychedelic compound found in some mushrooms.

PSP is not aware of any incidents where these products were distributed to children but is reminding parents, guardians, and caretakers of the importance of thoroughly checking all candy and candy packaging children may receive during Halloween.
Anyone coming into possession of these products should contact their local police. Parents should immediately contact 911 for medical assistance if a child unknowingly ingests such products.
