Police recently closed down a Berlin sweet shop after it was discovered that the owner was selling chocolates and lollipops that were laced with hallucinogenic mushrooms and marijuana.
The owner of the shop, located in the trendy East Berlin district of Prenzlauer Berg, was taken into custody on suspicion of drug dealing.
“In the shop we found 120 pieces of magic mushroom chocolate and countless cannabis lollipops,” said police, who confiscated around 70 sachets containing various drugs, about 20 marijuana joints, a range of pills and some jars of drug-laced honey.
Police said one customer, who appeared intoxicated, was arrested after trying to buy a bag of hallucinogenic mushrooms from an officer in the shop.

Did you hear about the novel way that Hollywood has come up with to deal with their excessive pigeon problem? They’re giving pigeons the contraceptive pill.
At this time there are over 5000 pigeons in the Hollywood area. Campaigners against the pigeons want to give them birth control pills in the form of a drug called OvoControl P in an attempt to cut their numbers in half over the next five years.
The contraceptives are being fed to the pigeons via bird food pellets. In a news story that I saw regarding Hollywood’s pigeon problem it was noted that the birds don’t seem to like to eat these special pellets. Perhaps it has something to do with a local woman who’s known as the Bird Lady who’s been encouraging the birds by leaving large bags of bird feed in different areas.

An Arkansas state trooper thought something might be up when he spotted a large stuffed monkey on the dashboard of a pickup truck. Authorities say the toy blocked much of the windshield.
According to police, the trooper smelled pot when he pulled over the driver on I-40 near Forrest City. Police say the trooper found more than two-thousand pills in truck.
The driver, Tonya Garner, and passenger, Dennis Garner, now face several drug counts each. Tonya Garner is also charged with driving with an obstructed view.
That’s some Monkey business!
