The Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office said it’s find a strong, new drug that looks exactly like candy.

Deputies said they’re seeing a new mix of methamphetamine and ketamine, otherwise known as ‘Special K.’


“It’s very scary,” Deputy Felicia Romero said. “They’re not regulated substances, so you never know what you're going to get; and you never know what lethal dose will be for each individual person.”

Deputies said children could also mistake the potent drug mix for candy.

“The drugs look like rock candy or sheets of candy in various colors. It could be ingested by mistake,” Romero said.

BCSO said the drug is new to the Albuquerque area, so they don’t know a lot about it yet either.

Deputies said parents should be vigilant, but they’re doing everything on their end to make sure this drug doesn’t become an epidemic.
