HAPEVILLE, Ga. — They're characters that any child would recognize - Homer Simpson, Hello Kitty and even the Minions from the Despicable Me.

But candy-like drugs recently confiscated by a Georgia police department definitely aren't for kids.

The pills were just a part of a Friday drug bust that also uncovered a stolen firearm, suspected marijuana, cannabis lollipops and even what police believe was cocaine in powder form.

Authorities in Hapeville, Ga. didn't release how they came about the drug bust but, just over a month before Halloween, they warned parents, teachers and coaches to make sure children know the dangers of these fake candies.
