Toddlers in Virginia hospitalized after eating goldfish crackers laced with THC

Three toddlers in Virginia were sent to a hospital after showing “lethargic and uncoordinated behavior as well as glassy, bloodshot eyes.

The Stafford County Sheriff’s Office said Friday in a Facebook post said the children, who were all 1 year old, exhibited symptoms of THC exposure.

Hospital staff tested the children and confirmed that they were exposed to the psychoactive compound.

Authorities say that they all attended the same day care together at a home in Windsor Forest.

While searching the day care, authorities found goldfish crackers around high chairs for toddlers.

They were then sent to the lab for testing, which confirmed the presence of THC, the sheriff’s office said.

The daycare owner was arrested then released on a $2,000 unsecured bond.

Simple possession of marijuana is legally permitted by those 21 years of age and older in Virginia.
