Two Edenderry Gardaí have been hospitalised after processing vape products that were seized yesterday.
The vapes were seized from a commercial premises during an ongoing investigation.
They became unwell while carrying out a count of seized drugs and cannabis vape products, and it’s understood THC oil may have leaked from some of the devices and reacted with their lithium batteries, although the exact cause has yet to be established.
The two Gardaí were taken to hospital and kept in overnight as a precaution, but they’re understood to be recovering well.
Army experts were called in to assess the scene, and the station, which is not staffed on a 24-hour basis, will remain closed today while a deep clean is carried out.
Policing services in the area are being provided from Tullamore Garda Station.
