BELMONT — Trick-or-Treat hours in Belmont will run from 4 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 31, and the Belmont Police Department is making sure it is a safe and pleasant Halloween. After all, knowledge is power.”Mann was referring to a flier from a New Jersey health collaborative that warned of marijuana candy being passed out on Halloween. The flier notes that marijuana candy often imitates hard or gummy candy or chocolate and can contain a much higher concentration of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) than marijuana plants. “If a parent is aware drugged/spiked candy is a potential risk and they exercise due diligence over the candy bag, they are more informed to keep their children safe,” Mann said. He advises parents to look over any candy to make sure it is properly sealed in its original packaging.
