AUTHORITIES WARN OF 'FAKE WEED' DANGERS
A law that makes simulated drugs illegal has reduced problems in some
communities, but not others, local law enforcement officials say.
The Marshfield Police Department has received numerous complaints of
"fake weed," Marshfield Police Officer Derek Iverson said.
Manufacturers spray a plant material with a chemical designed to give
the same effect as canabanoid, which is found in marijuana.
"We've received reports from emergency rooms and EMS in our city,"
Iverson said. "People are experiencing overdose effects from using
it."
