Sheriff's Office Investigating Spiked S'mores(Mushroom-laden)

[Champ]

ROGERS -- Make sure you know who made that S'more before you eat it. The Benton County Sheriff's Office Drug Task Force is investigating sales of the popular Girl Scout dessert possibly laced with psilocybin mushrooms, an illegal hallucinogen.

Authorities learned of the mushroom-laden S'mores after an individual who consumed one was treated for abdominal cramps and serious mental disorientation at a local hospital, said Deputy Doug Gay, spokesman for the Sheriff's office. Gay said the cookies, which were homemade, contained concealed chunks of mushrooms that initial tests proved were hallucinogenic.

Samples of the mushrooms have been sent to the Arkansas Crime Lab in Little Rock to confirm whether the hallucinogenic agent is psilocybin.

Gay said the Sheriff's office has a possible suspect, who was already under arrest on a charge of writing hot checks. The Sheriff's office is waiting for the results from the crime lab before making a decision on an arrest for drug-related charges.

Gay said the individual who purchased and consumed the S'more probably knew it contained the drug but did not know what the drug's effect would be. The potency of organic drugs may vary widely from day to day, Gay said.
