Tampered Halloween Candy Incident Ruled a Hoax
Rockville City Police officers found that sewing needles in gummy bear trick-or-treat candy were a hoax staged by a 9-year-old child.
Initially, officers warned people to check their Halloween candy for sewing needles, but after an investigation, the child admitted to placing the needles in two packages of gummy bears.
The parents discovered the altered candy when they used a magnet to scan their children's trick-or-treat candy as a safety precaution, leading to the child's confession.
According to police, no other tampering cases occurred in the area, and it was an isolated incident within one family.
The child confessed to placing the needles in the candy after being questioned by parents.
