Crystal meth found in child's Halloween candy on Wisconsin Indian reservation
Police on the Menominee Indian Reservation in Wisconsin say that a bag of methamphetamine was found in a child's Halloween candy collected over the weekend.
The Menominee Tribal Police Department received a complaint Monday after a mother found a suspicious package in her child's trick-or-treat bag. According to reports, she found the yellow bag of powder with the candy after her child went trick or treating on the reservation.
Police said the powder tested positive for methamphetamine.
The child did not ingest any of the substance.
In a Facebook post, police encouraged parents in the community to thoroughly check their children's Halloween candy.
Police are currently investigating the incident.
