Laval police are sounding the alarm after it seized cannabinoid-laced gummy bears on its territory.

They uncovered around a dozen of these gummies, five colours in all, during an arrest made in May.

Two 19-year old-men were caught smoking marijuana in a Chomedey parking lot. When police officers searched their vehicle for other drugs, they found the "candies." They were sent to a lab at Health Canada, and the results showed they were laced with THC, the psychoactive component of marijuana.

Dany Gagnon, deputy chief inspector of in Laval police’s criminal investigation divison, says combining drugs and candy makes young people underestimate the impact taking drugs can have.

Police are concerned that these gummies could fall into the wrong hands as they look and even smell like candy.

They don't know where the drugs come from, but in places like Colarado where marijuana has been legalized, THC-laced candy is on the market.

This is the first time Laval police have come across the drug-laced candies. They’re asking anyone with information about them to call 450-662-4636 or 911 and mention file number LVL-150514-102.
