POLICE in Halesowen have taken dangerous sweets which contain cannabis off the streets.
Officers from the Halesowen policing unit intercepted the cannabis sweets today (Monday October 19).
The sweets could easily deceive someone, with the packets mimicking popular brand Nerds.
The policing team tweeted: "These might look harmless enough but when ingested, they can have the effect of smoking numerous cannabis joints.
"THC is an illegal and dangerous substance, please stay clear of these drugs."
