Bag of Chips Contains More Than Munchies

A woman bought a bag of potato chips at a convenience store but discovered more than munchies in the bag.
Lois Campbell, 42, of Des Moines, opened the small sack of Uncle Ray's garlic-flavored chips Saturday and found another bag inside.
"We were eating a few of the chips, and I was about to give some to a 3-year-old child," Campbell said. "I thought it was a little bag of seasoning inside. When I saw what it was, I called the police."
A police report said the contents of the heat-sealed bag smelled like marijuana.
The leafy substance - and the chips - were seized as evidence.
The Git-N-Go store where Campbell bought the snacks has taken the rest of the Uncle Ray's chips off its shelves, said Mandi Lockridge.
The chips were packaged in Detroit, Lockridge said.
"To find out what was in there, they will have trace it back to Detroit," she said.
