The Village of Vernon Police Department is warning parents of a possible safety hazard in their children's Halloween candy.

On Thursday police received two complaints of a silver-colored sewing needle inside of a package of red Twizzler Twists candy. The needles were also found in and around a child's candy bag.

A Facebook video was posted indicating what had happened and the woman in the video who discovered the needle

The two complaints were from separate people that were unrelated and both cases are being investigated as such. Police are asking that all parents carefully inspect all candy. The specific areas of concern are the neighborhoods of Peterboro Street, Black Avenue West and East, Judson Drive and Curtis Road.

Both incidents are being investigated criminally and more information will be provided as it becomes available. Vernon Police says, If you feel you have been victimized this Halloween, please contact Vernon police officer Green at (315) 829-2550.
