Police in the Southern Tier have issued a public health warning about a new narcotics trend in the area that could pose a danger to children.

Candy-like drug tablets have been found in the Elmira area. They contain a mix of Xanax, fentanyl and heroin, but are disguised to look like SweetTarts candy.

The drugs even have a small letter "S" stamped on them that mimics the SweeTarts logo, Spectrum News reported.

Police asked anyone who encounters the drugs or has information about them to contact the Elmira Police Department at 607-737-5611, or use the anonymous tip line at 607-271-4285.
