It’s another reminder for parents to always check their kids’ Halloween candy before they eat it.
Penhold mom and former rdnewsNOW reporter Kirsten Dennis discovered what appeared to be two diabetes lancets while checking candy Tuesday night.
“Thankfully I dumped it on the ground and sorted it that way and no little hand reached in to grab a treat,” she said.
Sgt. Lori Eiler with Innisfail RCMP says the lancets found in the candy were unused and were not inserted directly into any pieces of candy. She says there’s no evidence showing this was a deliberate incident and that no other such incidents have been reported.
