“It’s nice to see this big of a drug bust somebody here in town that’s going to distribute tit locally for sure,” Weldy said.

But Weldy and Miller are very concerned with this last bust, mainly with these edibles. Weldy said the drugs in one of the photos looks like M&Ms.

“It’s heartbreaking that my kids have to worried about that, and that I as a mom have to worry that my kids have to be on guard when they go to school about things like that,” said Miller.
