The Center for Disease and Prevention reported an increase in deaths and serious illnesses police departments are cracking down on vapes and the users.

“It’s the wild, wild west of vape oils, you don’t know what’s inside that device, or the vape pen, it could be anything,” said Marietta Police Sgt. Josh Liedke with the Crime Interdiction Unit.

‘I think people believe they can say to us ‘Oh that’s hemp’ and we won’t make an arrest.  Or ‘Oh they’ll never find out because it’s an oil’. I think people get complacent and think they won’t get arrested for it when in fact that’s not true.  People will often be arrested on-site for marijuana or the oil,” said Sgt. Liedke.

Marietta Police say they’re keeping up with case law, working with the D.A.’s office and giving officers more training to keep up with the vape oils and products making their way into the area.
