Another death from synthetic cannabis has been reported in Illinois.
The state’s Department of Public Heath continues to warn against the use of fake weed, spice or K2. The drug has now killed two and sent dozens to hospitals with symptoms as awful as bleeding from the eyes.
IDPH’s Melaney Arnold says you’re taking a big risk when using the drug because you have no idea what it contains.
The IDPH won’t say where the deaths are taking place but the largest concentrations for reported overdoses and hospitalizations are in Chicago and Peoria and Tazewell County.
