Amid a nationwide backlash against vaping, new scrutiny is presenting problems for both health officials and now law enforcement. Authorities have seized at least 510,000 marijuana vape cartridges and arrested more than 120 people in the past two years, The Associated Press reported Tuesday. Donovan said he expects pot vapes will remain a priority for black-market suppliers and the authorities who pursue them. The illicit marijuana vape market nationwide is estimated at as much as $2.5 billion this year -- roughly equivalent to the market for legal pot cartridges, according to cannabis market researchers BDS Analytics and Arcview Market Research. Health officials have urged people to avoid vaping, particularly black-market products containing THC, which many who became sick said they had used.
