In the U.S., 13 children were poisoned by candy laced with drugs at a summer camp

At a summer camp in East Orange, New Jersey, 13 children ate candy that may have contained narcotics. The incident occurred on July 23.

According to preliminary reports, the candy may have contained hallucinogenic mushrooms. The children’s parents said that after eating the dangerous candy, their children felt ill and showed signs of poisoning.

According to Richard Horab, a representative of the YMCA camp, one of the children distributed the candy to the others without the organizers’ knowledge or consent. Eventually, the children became ill, so medical personnel, parents, and the police were called to the scene. The children were examined by medical personnel and then handed over to their parents.

Richard Horab assured that participants in the summer program are prohibited from sharing food. According to media reports, the candy may have contained hallucinogenic mushrooms. However, the East Orange Police Department is not currently commenting to the press on the matter.

According to one woman, the children who were poisoned looked sick and had white lips. “It was the worst thing I’ve ever seen,” the mother admitted.

Another mother, Cynthia Cunningham, said that her daughter took just a bite of a candy that looked like a chocolate bar but spit it out because of the strange taste. According to her mother, the girl still appeared to be under the strong influence of a psychoactive substance, so her mother took her to the hospital.

This was reported with reference to The New York Times.
