A man was arrested in Tower Isle, St. Mary after the police allegedly seized a significant amount of illegal, ganga-infused products, including 200 weed gummies, at his home.
Reports are that about 5 o'clock Wednesday morning, lawmen from the St. Mary division, in collaboration with the Firearms and Narcotics Investigation Division, acting on information, searched a two-bedroom house and discovered the items.
In addition to the weed gummies, the police found 17 sugarcane candies labelled 'High Vibes', several packets of edible cannabis products, nine packets and 11 cups of compressed ganga strains, seven saucers containing loose ganga and bottles and containers of rum infused with ganga.
The team also seized a packet of cannabis-infused tic-tacs and a packet labelled 'Island Spice Hot Wings Sauce Infused with Cannabis'.
The police are reminding the public that the sale and distribution of ganga infused edibles is illegal under Jamaican law and pose significant health risks, especially to minors.
The police are asking people with information on illegal drug activity to contact the nearest police station or call Crime Stop at 311.
