Police arrested and charged a 20-year-old Cambridge man with possession for the purpose of trafficking Tuesday following a raid on the recently opened FunGuyz magic mushroom dispensary on King Street East in Preston.
Waterloo Regional Police Services’ Drugs and Firearms Unit completed a search warrant and seized a large quantity of suspect psilocybin in various forms and Canadian currency.
Police say the psilocybin being sold is classified as a criminal offence under the Controlled Drugs and Substance Act (CDSA), as psilocybin is classified as a schedule three drug.
Businesses selling these products are operating illegally and the substances sold are not regulated or quality controlled.
