OAK HILL, WV (WVNS) - Oak Hill Police Police Chief, Mike Whisman, said Thursday that the substance found in a child's trick-or-treat bag tested negative for heroin. The test results from the State Police Crime Lab found that it was a derivative of marijuana.

How did she know it was heroin and not sugar or cocaine?
The article says the police initially thought it was heroin. Other articles just say that the mother found a strange brown substance and then called the police.
A derivative of marijuana is still bad. Nowadays, the pot could be laced with PCP or ‘Spice’.
Thanks for the info. In this case i was posting without reading the article - a FreeRepublic tradition.
Probably just some Bit-O-Honeys left over from last year.
I have participated in that tradition many times. :)
