Boy, 12, Finds Razor Blade in Halloween Candy

[Cincinnatus]

A family in Pennsylvania was shocked after their 12-year-old son found a razor blade in a bag of candy while trick-or-treating last weekend

This story does not pass the smell test. He's 12 and is still trick or treating? And he was trick or treating last weekend? Do people in Scottsdale, PA, do things differently than other areas of the country? Is it, like, a week long event there?

Ok, coulda happened but I am skeptical.

Smells like a bid for  attention.

In our neighborhood the date for trick or treating varies.  It's always on the Thursday nearest Halloween, so this year it's actually on the 31st.

I don't think the date of the trick or treating is suspect, but I don't know about the rest of the story.
