Methamphetamine "candy" warning
State Attorney Steve Meadows joins area law enforcement agencies in advising
parents and children to be careful taking candy that is unwrapped.
Specifically, there is evidence that methamphetamine "candy," which looks
like Pop Rocks is making its way across the country. First reports are that
the "strawberry candy" is being shared in schools. Street names include
strawberry meth and strawberry quick. There are also reports of the same
item in chocolate, peanut butter, cola, cherry, grape, and orange flavors.
Methamphetamine is a very dangerous, addictive, drug which attacks the brain
in a physical manner.
Should your child receive any of this type of "candy"; please report it to a
local law enforcement agency.
