There has been another reported case of Halloween candy tampering, this time in Hamburg. Earlier this week, residents in parts of Clarence and Amherst were issued an alert after a metal pin was found in a mini Nestle Crunch bar. Now, Hamburg Police say they are investigating after a resident reported a sewing needle or nail-like object found in a piece of banana-flavored Laffy Taffy candy.
It is believed the candy was handed out in the Pine Lakes subdivision in Lakeview. Parents whose children went trick-of-treating in that area are being asked to check their Halloween candy.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Hamburg Police Detective Howard Widman at 649-3800, Ext. 2603.
