NEW YORK – A few days after Halloween, a teen found a small blade hidden in one of her chocolate bars she had picked up on Halloween, according to the Suffolk County Police Department.
Officials learned of the “sharp” chocolate bar on Thursday around 7:35 pm after the 13-year-old girl’s mother reported the incident.
The girl went trick-or-treating on October 31 and has been swapping candy with her classmates at PJ Gelinas High School for the past few days, according to Suffolk County Police.
Police are asking residents to make sure adults are present when children open the candy they received on Halloween, particularly in Stony Brook and Setauket.
Anyone with information should call the Sixth Precinct Crime Section at 631-854-8626 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-220-TIPS.
