Greenfield police say they have arrested a man accused of making “Xanie Tarts,” mixing Sweet Tarts candy with Xanax, an anti-anxiety medicine.
The drugs have also been found locally, according to Bartholomew County deputies.
Our news-gathering partners at Network Indiana report that 30-year-old Jeramie Smith, of Greenfield, was arrested Friday. When police arrived to serve a search warrant, Smith was in the process of making the designer drug.
Authorities say Smith is suspected of distributing the tainted candy in Hancock County and elsewhere in central Indiana.
