Someone was drunk and called the police for help causing the Dongchuang incident

The Senior Inspector of the Intelligence Unit of the Police Narcotics Investigation Division, Ng Ka-lun, pointed out that the youngest person arrested in the marijuana case this year was a 12-year-old boy. He met a regular game team in online games and was exposed to marijuana.

Once when they met for a party together, someone called the police because they were unwell after drinking. The police officers came to the door and found marijuana, and arrested them all.

Wu continued that with the popularity of online social media, the police noticed that drug dealers would use online platforms to sell drugs and even sell them at a clear price. Due to the epidemic, traditional drug sales channels, such as bars and other entertainment venues, were temporarily suspended. Drug trafficking is rampant.

In view of this, the police carried out a snake operation from June to August to crack down on online drug trafficking platforms. A total of 41 people were arrested in the operation.

The police also discovered that many marijuana keywords were circulating on the Internet, such as weed, 420, stoner, etc., and some people shared their experiences on marijuana on the Internet, criticizing some for blatantly putting drug information on the Internet to harm young people.

The Narcotics Division announced earlier this year that last year the number of young people under the age of 21 smoking marijuana increased by 48% compared with the previous year. The trend may be related to the legalization of marijuana in overseas countries, such as Canada, and the youth underestimated the harm.
