A shocking discovery was made in Kamloops, British Columbia on Halloween night, as a child found a small razor blade in their candy. According to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), the incident occurred on the evening of October 31st, when the child was going through their trick-or-treating haul.
The child’s parent immediately contacted the authorities, who launched an investigation into the matter. The RCMP has confirmed that the razor blade was found in a piece of candy that was collected from a residential area in Kamloops. They are urging parents to thoroughly check their children’s Halloween candy before allowing them to consume it.
This incident has raised concerns about the safety of children during Halloween, a holiday that is meant to be fun and enjoyable. The RCMP is reminding parents to inspect all candy and treats before giving them to their children, and to discard anything that appears to have been tampered with.
The police are also asking for the public’s help in identifying the source of the razor blade. They are urging anyone with information to come forward and contact the Kamloops RCMP at 250-828-3000.
