CANTON, Ga. — Canton police are asking parents to double-check Halloween treats after receiving reports of candy tampering.
Police announced Thursday they've received two separate reports where sewing needles have been found in the candy. Officers recently asked two families to file police reports after they spotted the complaints on social media.
One post said a sewing needle was found inside a Reese's, Take 5 candy bar, according to Canton Police Department. Another post said the needle was found in another child's candy bag, they said.
Investigators believe both incidents happened in the Great Sky neighborhood.
