When police confronted the friend she pulled a bag with five baggies containing brownies out of her backpack. She said she didn't know what was in the brownies but got them from a friend.

The person who made the brownies said she had never made them before and sold six of them for $20. The pot brownie maker said she made the brownies on March 2 lacing the butter with weed, but would not say where she bought the weed from.

Police tested the brownies which tested positive for THC.
