WILKINSBURG, Pa. — Police near Pittsburgh say they have confirmed that more than 60 small bags a third-grader was handing out to classmates were full of heroin.
The 8-year-old boy brought the bags to Turner Elementary School on Tuesday before a teacher discovered them. Wilkinsburg police said at a news conference Wednesday that some of the bags were found empty in a trash can but there was no evidence any of the kids ingested the drugs.
School officials sent a letter home to parents about the incident.
Police say the bags had the words "trust me" stamped on them and would have a street value of about $1,000.
Police have contacted the boy's parents. The investigation into where the boy got the drugs is continuing.

HOW EFFING SCARY IS THAT?? I am gobsmacked. I had to re-read "8-year-old" like 4 times to make sure I wasn't misreading. So sad. So scary. So wrong.
