Teen Seriously Ill After Taking Online Cannabis Product

Gloucestershire Police say they believe a teenager, who is in a serious condition in hospital, could have suffered a severe reaction to a cannabis product she bought online.

It is believed that the teenager purchased a product online containing Cannabidiol which is described as an oil derived from the cannabis plant, and can be inhaled through a vaporizer, like an e-cigarette.

The 18-year-old woman was admitted to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital last night.

Police say they can't confirm taking the substance was the direct cause of the illness. 

Inspector Mark Duncton said, “Our advice is never to buy or take any kind of drug or drug derivative bought online.  

"These products can pose a very serious danger to your health; you do not know what is in them or what their affects might be.”
